ABSTRACT="In this paper, we show, for the first time in the literature, that the
common assumption that jamming is an effective way to neutralise drones, is
false. In particular, we propose JAMME: a solution that allows the drone to
exploit an adversarial jamming signal to implement an emergency but yet
effective navigation system that does not require any other type of
on-board navigational sensor/instrument---the drone still being able to
accomplish its mission. Our contributions are manifold: first, we revise
the jamming based anti-drone techniques; second, we introduce a basic model
for JAMME, and accompanying mathematical tool---rooted in systems control
theory. Further, we show through an extensive simulation campaign that
JAMME do allow a drone to accomplish its mission in a jammed area. Finally,
we also discuss possible techniques to mitigate the impact of JAMME, as
well as its limitations, and we conclude highlighting further research
directions. We believe that our seminal contribution, other than being
interesting on its own, can pave the way for further research in the
highlighted directions, as well as having a compelling follow up from a
practitioner point of view."
