    Abstract: The invention relates to a radar system comprising:



    a frequency synthesizer, configured to generate a modulated local signal (Sf0+Δf0);
    at least one frequency multiplier, configured to supply an intermediate-frequency local signal (Sf_inter+Δf_inter) to each emission channel (8) and to each reception channel, the intermediate-frequency local signal (Sf_inter+Δf_inter) being a fractional multiple of the modulated local signal (Sf0+Δf0);
    a plurality of emission frequency transposition components, the emission frequency transposition components being synchronized with one another by the modulated local wave (Sf0+Δf0);
    a plurality of reception frequency transposition components, the reception frequency transposition components being synchronized with one another by the modulated local signal (Sf0+Δf0), the reception channels being configured to demodulate the intermediate-frequency reception signal (Sf_inter_Rx+Δf_inter_Rx) using the intermediate-frequency local signal (Sf_inter+Δf_inter).

    Abstract: The invention relates to a MIMO imaging radar system. The system comprises transmission channels (Ve1, VeM), reception channels (Vr1, VrN), and co-located radiating elements (ERe1, EReM, ERr1, ERrN) forming a two-dimensional antenna array. Each radiating element (ERe1, EReM, ERr1, ERrN) has a predefined instantaneous field of coverage. Each radiating element is formed by a plurality of p radiating sub-elements (SeElt1, SsEltp) distributed in at least one of the two dimensions of the antenna array. The radar comprises a plurality of electronic steering modules (MDe1, . . . , MDrN). Each electronic steering module is connected to one radiating element. Each steering module is configured to apply a steering command (Cmd) between all the radiating sub-elements (SeElt1, SsEltp) of a given radiating element. The steering command (Cmd) is identical from one radiating element to the next, so as to move the field of coverage of each radiating element in the same direction.

    Abstract: A method of monitoring the integrity of stations for observing radio-navigation signals in a satellite based augmentation system SBAS comprises: defining a geographical zone comprising a plurality of observation stations, calculating, for each observation station of the said zone and for each line of sight between the said station and a satellite, the discrepancy between the theoretical pseudo-distance D and the measured pseudo-distance D′, calculating the average m of the said discrepancies D-D′ over the said zone for at least one satellite in visibility of the said zone, validating the integrity of at least one observation station of the said zone if the said discrepancy, for the said station and for at least one line of sight between the said station and a satellite, is less than or equal to the said average that is multiplied by a predetermined exclusion threshold, and excluding this observation station in the converse case.
