Norway Hosts Annual Jammertest Exercise to Counter Satellite Signal Jamming
Defence and technology companies gathered in the Arctic for the annual drill aimed at testing resilience against satellite jamming.
Defence and technology companies have taken part in annual exercises in Norway known as Jammertest, according to Al Jazeera, which reported on the initiative in a video segment.
The exercise, held in the Arctic region, is designed to help participants counter and better understand satellite jamming, a form of electronic interference that can disrupt navigation and communication signals, Al Jazeera reported.
Al Jazeera's report did not specify further details on the participants, location within Norway, or the scale of this year's exercise.
Satellite jamming has drawn increased attention in recent years as reliance on satellite-based navigation and communication systems has grown across military and civilian sectors. Exercises such as Jammertest are intended to allow companies and defence organisations to test equipment and systems under simulated interference conditions.
