| - | |||
| - | ==How it works:== | ||
| - | |||
| - | ECM modules/drones, colloquially "jammers", disrupt the targeting abilities of the other ship for 20 seconds. This is chance based and influenced by the jamming strength of the module/drone and the sensor strength of the target ship. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Each races' ships have a particular sensor type. Each "racial" jammer module is strong against one of these types and weak against others. Multispectral jammers are of the same strength against all sensor types, weaker than racials against their best target but stronger than racials against the wrong races. Each ship also has sensor strength; typically the bigger the ship, the stronger the sensors. | ||
| - | |||
| - | The chance of one module to jam one ship on one cycle is p = ECM strength / ship sensor strength. (For the ECM module the strength against that ship's racial sensor type is used.) Hence, the probability that the jam fails is 1-p, the probability that at N jammers all fail is (1-p)^N, and so the the probability that at least one jammer succeeds is 1-(1-p)^N, assuming each jammer is of similar type. (The formula for different strengths of jammers is left as exercise.) | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==How the countermeasure works:== | ||
| - | |||
| - | ECCM (mid slots) and Sensor Backup Arrays (low slots) both increase the sensor strength of a ship, which lowers the chance of a jam. ECCM is more effective, but uses capacitor, as opposed to Sensor Backup Arrays. | ||
| - | |||
| - | HINT : When using ECM modules you can select the racial jammer for the targeted ship based on the color code principle. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Caldari - Blue background icon - Blue ECM module\\ | ||
| - | Gallente - Green background icon - Green ECM module\\ | ||
| - | Amarr - Gold/Brown background icon - Gold/Yellow ECM module\\ | ||
| - | Minmatar - Red/Pink background icon - Red ECM module\\ | ||
