Delirium - A portable GPS jamming and spoofing solution
Abstract
This report details the development of the bachelor’s project Delirium, which was carried out at USN Kongsberg in the spring of 2024. Delirium is a portable system designed to attack unmanned aerial vehicles with radio frequency jamming and spoofing of the civil Global Positioning System (GPS) signal. It is both a general jammer capable of denying Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) reception with several strategies, and a GPS "spoofer" capable of generating its own faux GPS baseband data and transmitting this data to an arbitrary target device. These capabilities can optionally be performed at the same time. The novelty of this product lies in the synthesis of existing stand-alone programs and modern software-defined radio technology to create a completely mobile penetration testing -and attacking device to be used against devices utilizing GNSS signals.
