Abstract: A method is implemented by computer for the management of a convoy comprising at least two vehicles, each of the at least two vehicles comprising satellite positioning means and vehicle-to-vehicle communication means, the method comprising the determination of the relative positioning of the vehicles, the determination comprising the measurement of the propagation time of a signal between vehicles by the communication means, the clocks associated with the communication means being synchronized via satellite positioning means at a reference clock time. Developments comprise the communication between the vehicles of various data (e.g. measurement uncertainties, signal-to-noise ratios, residual values), the determination of absolute locations, the use of an SBAS-type system, the use of differential GPS, the use of Doppler measurements for the turns or even the exclusion of a failing satellite. A computer program product and associated systems are described.

Abstract: A method of following a transfer orbit or a phase of orbital placement of a continuous-thrust space vehicle comprises the following steps: a) tracking at least one GNSS signal and using it to determine at least one pseudorange between the space vehicle and one or more GNSS satellites transmitting the signal; b) using an estimation model to jointly estimate a set of state parameters of the space vehicle comprising a plurality of position parameters, a plurality of velocity parameters and at least one thrust error parameter characterizing a discrepancy between an actual thrust force of the space vehicle and a nominal thrust force by taking the pseudorange or pseudoranges as input datum of the estimation model. An apparatus for the implementation of such a method is also provided.

Abstract: A method for calibrating a multichannel GNSS receiver which does not require the use of a specific signal generator and which may be implemented directly on the basis of simple measurements taken from a receiver in operation comprises determining a first, broadband equalization filter which may be positioned at the output of the RF reception channels and at the input of the correlators in order to correct the mismatch between the various RF reception channels. The invention also consists of determining a second, narrowband equalization filter in order to correct residual phase and gain errors.

Abstract: In the field of satellite geolocation, a geopositioning method with a trust index is implemented by a geopositioning terminal. According to the method, the positioning of the terminal is estimated by geopositioning satellites and the trust index is provided by comparison with at least one pseudo-distance measurement recorded by at least one additional geopositioning satellite, which is different from those used to compute the position of the terminal.

Abstract: A method for detecting anomalies on satellite navigation signals consists in extracting the code error values delivered at the output of the N code discriminators, and comparing the extracted code error values with a same first threshold value corresponding to an acceptable maximum code error value and assigning a confidence index to each navigation signal received on each reception channel i, the confidence index depending on the result of the comparison carried out on the code error values.
