#1 I speculate that eventually the ECM device will be defeated in one of several ways:
1. Optical triggers (lasers)
2. Tiggering early with a time delay. Will require knowing the spped of the convoy accurately.
3. Shielding the triggering device from jamming in the direction of convoy. The mine would have to be triggered from an unshielded direction.

The presence of a high value target in a convoy will be compromised unless these devices are generally distributed.

#2 More likely to trigger on the jammer's signal itself. Listen for it, than detonale when it's power peaks and starts to drop off.
