Abstract: A process of encoding information data in a sequence of bursts ( . . . , Bi-2, Bi-1 Bi, Bi+1, . . . ), each burst comprising a block of information symbols and a block of redundancy symbols. The block of redundancy symbols (R,) of the current burst (B,) of the sequence is generated by calculating a sum of a series of coding values relating to a series of bursts (Bi-2, Bi-1), each coding value of the series of coding values being obtained by a respective coding function applied to the block of information symbols of the corresponding burst of the series of bursts.

Abstract: The positioning receiver according to the invention comprises means for storing configuration information and information on its reception conditions, which is processed in order to calculate a current and/or predicted precision of the positioning calculation. Advantageously, at least some of this information is integrated into a variation model of a Kalman filter integrated into the receiver. The invention notably allows a more rapid convergence on a reference precision in a mono-frequency operating mode and transitions between a mono-frequency and bi-frequency mode to be smoothed. Advantageously, the precision information is delivered graphically or in numerical form to the user.

Abstract: There is disclosed a computer implemented method for processing the signal emitted by a distress beacon, the signal being received by several satellites and forwarded to at least one ground station, the method comprising the steps consisting in determining a set of hypothetical positions of the beacon, and for at least one of the hypothetical positions, for each satellite, offsetting the signal received and forwarded as a function of the hypothetical position; summing the offset signals; and evaluating the validity of the sum of the offset signals as a function of the presence of a predefined characteristic in the sum. Developments describe aspects such as the temporal and/or frequency offsetting, the construction of a digital replica of the signal transmitted by the beacon, and as the minimizing of the weighted residues of the offsets. System aspects are described, including the calibration of an active antenna or an array of antennas.

Abstract: A bandpass filter for microwave-frequency wave which is frequency tunable, comprises at least one resonator. Each resonator comprises a cavity having a conducting wall substantially cylindrical in relation to an axis Z, and at least one dielectric element disposed inside the cavity. The resonator resonates on two perpendicular polarizations having respectively distributions of the electromagnetic field in the cavity that are deduced from one another by a rotation of 90° and according to one and the same frequency. The wall of the cavity comprises an insert section facing the element having a different shape from a section not situated facing the element. The insert section and the element are able to perform a rotation with respect to one another in relation to the axis Z so as to define at least a first and a second relative position differing by an angle substantially equal to 45° to within 20°.
