In telecommunication, the term electronic deception means the deliberate radiation, reradiation, alteration, suppression, absorption, denial, enhancement, or reflection of electromagnetic energy in a manner intended to convey misleading information and to deny valid information to an enemy or to enemy electronics-dependent weapons. Radiation, as in Physics, is Energy in the form of waves or moving Subatomic particles emitted by an atom or other body as it changes from a higher energy In Physics, absorption of electromagnetic radiation is the process by which the Energy of a Photon is taken up by matter typically the electrons of an Reflection is the change in direction of a Wave front at an interface between two different media so that the wave front returns into the medium from which Information as a concept has a diversity of meanings from everyday usage to technical settings

Among the types of electronic deception are:

• Manipulative electronic deception - Actions to eliminate revealing or convey misleading, telltale indicators that may be used by hostile forces
• Simulative electronic deception - Actions to represent friendly notional or actual capabilities to mislead hostile forces
• Imitative electronic deception - The introduction of electromagnetic energy into enemy systems that imitates enemy emissions.
