Abstract

Methods, apparatus, and systems for detecting signals interfering with satellite signaling and determining a location of the interfering source are disclosed. In one example aspect, a method for detecting a signal directed at interfering with satellite signaling includes receiving, by a receiving node, a signal from a signal source, the signal produced by the signal source disguised as a satellite signal; determining an estimated position of the receiving node based on an orbital position of the satellite and a characteristic of the signal; comparing the estimated position of the receiving node with a reference position of the receiving node; determining that the signal source is a spoofing source different than the satellite; and determine a location of the spoofing source in part based on the estimated position.
