Although unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) relay can provide auxiliary communication due to its flexible mobility, it is vulnerable to jamming attacks. This paper considers the UAV relay anti‐jamming communication issue under the threat of a malicious jammer with beam‐forming jamming capability. To prevent the relay link from deteriorating, UAV trajectory adjustment and transmission mode switching between half‐duplex and full‐duplex are two available schemes, while they will incur the additional flying costs and continuous mode switching, respectively. To balance the trade‐off between trajectory optimization and mode selection, this paper investigates the joint trajectory optimization and mode selection anti‐jamming approach. First, an anti‐jamming utility considering the cost‐efficient and end‐to‐end capacity gains is designed. Second, to model the bounded rationality of both the UAV relay and the jammer due to the adversarial context, a biased Stackelberg game to analyse the competitive system interactions is proposed. Moreover, the existence of Stackelberg equilibrium (SE) in the problem is proved. Finally, a joint mode selection and trajectory optimization (JMSTO) algorithm based on the multi‐armed bandit is proposed to obtain the SE. It is further demonstrated that the JMSTO algorithm has a logarithmic regret. The results show that our proposed JMSTO algorithm is superior to non‐joint optimization methods.

Wireless networks are a key component of the telecommunications infrastructure in our society, and wireless services become increasingly important as the applications of wireless devices have penetrated every aspect of our lives. Although wireless technologies have significantly advanced in the past decades, most wireless networks are still vulnerable to radio jamming attacks due to the openness nature of wireless channels, and the progress in the design of jamming-resistant wireless networking systems remains limited. This stagnation can be attributed to the lack of practical physical-layer wireless technologies that can efficiently decode data packets in the presence of jamming attacks. This article surveys existing jamming attacks and anti-jamming strategies in wireless local area networks (WLANs), cellular networks, cognitive radio networks (CRNs), ZigBee networks, Bluetooth networks, vehicular networks, LoRa networks, RFID networks, and GPS system, with the objective of offering a comprehensive knowledge landscape of existing jamming/anti-jamming strategies and stimulating more research efforts to secure wireless networks against jamming attacks. Different from prior survey papers, this article conducts a comprehensive, in-depth review on jamming and anti-jamming strategies, casting insights on the design of jamming-resilient wireless networking systems. An outlook on promising antijamming techniques is offered at the end of this article to delineate important research directions.

We consider a type of routing problems common in defence and security, in which we control a fleetof unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that have to reach one or more target locations without beingdetected by an adversary. Detection can be carried out by a variety of sensors (radio receivers, cameras,personnel, etc) placed by the adversary around the target sites. We model the act of detecting a UAVfrom first principles by noting that sensors work by monitoring frequencies in the electromagneticspectrum for signals or noise emitted. By this, we are able to provide a flexible and versatile nonlinearoptimisation framework in which the problem is modeled as a novel trajectory optimisation problemwith paths of the UAVs as continuous arcs in an Euclidean space. The flexibility of our approach isexhibited by the fact that we can easily consider various relevant objectives, among them minimisingthe overall probability of detection and maximising the location error that the adversary experienceswhen trying to locate our UAVs. Our model is also versatile enough to consider the act of jamming, inwhich one or more of our UAVs intentionally send out signals to interfere with the operations of theadversary’s sensors. Numerical results show the flexibility of our framework, and that we can solverealistic instances of this problem type.
