Abstract: A distributed phase-coherent swarm array system and method for adaptive radio frequency denial is disclosed, comprising a plurality of unmanned aerial vehicle Mobile Emission Nodes each carrying a wideband software-defined radio transceiver operating from seventy megahertz to six gigahertz, a gallium nitride power amplifier, an omnidirectional antenna element, and a fieldprogrammable gate array executing real-time per-node phase offset computation, synchronised via a chip-scale atomic clock reference distributed by a central command Prime Node over a dedicated sixty-gigahertz or free-space optical inter-node communication link. The Prime Node employs an embedded convolutional neural network AI compute module to classify hostile emitter signals by modulation type, polarisation, and frequency characteristics, and to autonomously optimise the three-dimensional flight formation of the swarm such that the distributed aperture maximises coherent beamforming gain against the classified target, achieving effective isotropic radiated power proportional to the square of the number of participating nodes, N-squared, substantially exceeding the linear summation achievable by non-coherent approaches. The system further incorporates an AI-driven null-steering algorithm projecting destructive interference zones toward friendly receivers to prevent electromagnetic fratricide, a mechanical polarisation alignment function achieved through autonomous airframe attitude adjustment of each node, and a selfhealing distributed consensus protocol that ensures uninterrupted coherent jamming operations within five hundred milliseconds of prime node failure by autonomously electing a successor prime node and transferring master timing authority without human intervention, collectively defining a novel, survivable, scalable, and power-efficient electronic warfare capability with no prior system integrating all claimed features within a unified architecture.
