Abstract: The invention relates to a method for estimating the direction of arrival of an electromagnetic wave at an antenna array (2), comprising the steps of: —estimating (202) a covariance matrix of signals acquired by the antenna array (2); —calculating (204) a normalised eigenvector of the covariance matrix; —correlating (205) the normalised eigenvector with a first reference table and a second reference table so as to produce a first correlation spectrum and a second correlation spectrum comprising correlation indices associated, respectively, with different directions of arrival; —constructing (312) a third reference table by linear combination of the first reference table and the second reference table with a polarisation component of the electromagnetic wave in the first direction and the second direction, respectively; —correlating (314) the normalised eigenvector with the third reference table so as to produce a third correlation spectrum comprising correlation indices associated with different directions of arrival; —identifying (316) a direction of arrival associated with a maximum correlation index of the third correlation spectrum.

Abstract: A self-adaptive shielding device is suitable for a lens or a window of a piece of equipment provided with an electrically conductive enclosure containing an optical or RF sensor. The device includes a shielding screen having a switchable RF shielding mesh of micrometric pitch at least partially surrounded by a border of insulator-metal transition material arranged between the mesh and an electrically conductive envelope. A susceptor element is arranged facing the insulator-metal transition material and transforms incident electromagnetic energy (RFH) into activation heat for the insulator-metal transition material. The susceptor element causes a transition to the conductive state of the insulator-metal transition material under the action of the electromagnetic energy so as to electrically connect the mesh to the electrically conductive envelope when the incident electromagnetic energy exceeds a given threshold.

Abstract: A measuring device has a magnetic circuit with a first and second armature elements that are positioned one on either side of an axis X and are manufactured with at least one ferromagnetic material. A magnet is situated between the armature elements such that a first pole of the magnet is positioned next to the first armature element and such that a second pole of the magnet is positioned next to the second armature element. A rod is arranged to be secured to a target and inserted between the armature elements to slide along the axis X. The rod has a variable section along its length such that a magnetic flux in the magnetic circuit depends on a linear position of the rod along the axis X. At least one sensor is arranged to measure the magnetic flux, which corresponds to the linear position of the target.

Abstract: A system couples a driving shaft and a driven shaft in rotation and without play. The driving shaft includes a tubular end with at least one internal longitudinal groove receiving the driven shaft and having at its end a projecting cylindrical transverse pin configured to engage in the groove. A return spring for the pin urges the pin without play against a longitudinal edge of the groove. The spring includes a first helical section for fastening to the driven shaft and threaded by screwing through the pin. A second section of the spring bears on the pin, and a third elastic return section of the spring acts elastically on the second section.

Abstract: A method for dating images obtained by at least one camera equipping a vehicle includes acquiring a reference signal including time information and generating a modulated signal in response to the reference signal. The modulated signal has at least one retiming pulse with a retiming period which that is different from a base period of the modulated signal. The method further includes, for each camera, acquiring images at a frequency depending on the frequency of the modulated signal, each image being associated with a timestamp provided by the camera, and determining the time difference between the timestamps of two successive images of the camera. If the time difference determined between said timestamps is different from the base period of the modulated signal, the method assigns a reference date to said images depending on the time information of the reference signal.

Abstract: A connection system for exchanging electrical signals includes a first symmetrical connector and a second symmetrical connector. Each symmetrical connector has at least one magnetic core provided with at least one turn. The symmetrical connectors are produced in a substrate made of insulating material so as to form a half of a coupling transformer. At least one half of the coupling transformer of each connector is arranged opposite one another so as to be able to exchange a magnetic flux. The electrical signals are emitted by the first connector in the form of a magnetic flux, and the second connector generates the electrical signals on receiving the magnetic flux.
