    Abstract: A method for demodulating a received signal resulting from the modulation of a basic chirp signal including estimating of a symbol carried by the received signal, implementing the following sub-steps: determining N decision components from the received signal and from a reference chirp signal obtained by modulating the basic chirp signal by a reference symbol corresponding to a symbol of rank r, a decision component of index I, denoted as a component Dl, being a function of a term, the phase of which depends quadratically on I, with I being an integer from 0 to N−1; and deciding the rank {circumflex over (k)} of the symbol carried by the received signal, from the decision component, of index k, denoted as a component Dk, having an extremum value among the N decision components.

    Abstract: A method for generating a pulse-position-modulated signal. The signal includes a temporal succession of waveforms among Ns waveforms obtained by time shift that is an integer multiple of an elementary time duration Tc. The method includes the following steps executed for a k rank symbol among Ns symbols: obtaining, a set of N modulation coefficients cl(k), a modulation coefficient of index n, cn(k), being expressed as the product of a reference modulation coefficient cn(r) coming from the Fourier series decomposition of a reference waveform associated with a symbol of rank r multiplied by a phase shift term the argument of which is proportional to n; and generating M temporal samples of a k-th waveform carrying the symbol of rank k by Fourier transformation of said set of N modulation coefficients cl(k).
