[Alpha Biz= Reporter Kim Jisun] The South Korean government has announced that North Korea's GPS jamming activities have exceeded 300 incidents this month.
On the 10th, the Ministry of Science and ICT reported that "interference signals from the Kaepung and Haeju areas of North Korea continue to be detected by the radio management system," adding, "From November 1 to 11 AM on the 10th, a total of 331 incidents of GPS signal reception disruptions were reported, including 279 cases involving aircraft and 52 involving ships." Fortunately, these incidents did not result in any actual accidents or damages.
Radio interference occurs when signals are transmitted at a higher intensity than GPS reception signals, disrupting normal GPS services. This interference can lead to issues with receiving location information for air, sea, and land traffic.
