Patent number: 11304241Abstract: A method for transmitting data packets through a random-access (RA) transmission channel shared by a plurality of user terminals uses and exploits a function F for assigning and distributing transmission resources F(u) to the user terminals, knowledge of the graph of which is shared by the sending user terminals and the receiving station in a preliminary step. During the decoding of the received packets, the graph {(u, F(u)} of the assigning and distributing function is exploited by the receiving station to minimize, or even to decrease to zero, the number of replica-location correlations required in case of failure of the conventional CRD-SA protocol decoding process.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2019Date of Patent: April 12, 2022Assignees: THALES, CENTRE NATIONAL D'ETUDES SPATIALES PARIS, FRANCE, INSTITUT SUPERIEUR DE L'AERONAUTIQUE ET DE L'ESPACE TOULOUSE, FRANCE, INSTITUT NATIONAL POLYTECHNIQUE DE TOULOUSE, CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUEInventors: Selma Zamoum, Mathieu Gineste, Jérôme Lacan, Marie-Laure Boucheret, Jean-Baptiste Dupe

Publication number: 20190235496Abstract: The disclosure provides methods for managing an automated system having a display and adapted to be controlled by a human operator and by at least one automatic controller. The methods include triggering a condition associated with a parameter of the automated system, displaying the parameter on the display in a first display zone, automatically changing the automatic controller between a first state and a second state subsequent to the triggering the condition, displaying the second state on the display in a second display zone, detecting, by a gaze tracking device of the human operator and after displaying the parameter and displaying the second state, a plurality of viewed zones of the display that are viewed by the human operator within a predetermined time interval, and verifying whether the plurality of viewed zones comprises at least the second display zone and the first display zone.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2017Publication date: August 1, 2019Applicant: INSTITUT SUPERIEUR DE L'AERONAUTIQUE ET DE L'ESPACEInventors: Frédéric Dehais, Patrice Labedan

Publication number: 20190018147Abstract: Satellite navigation device having an architecture which uses, in parallel, an estimator based on scalar tracking and an estimator using vector tracking. As such, it is possible to compare the results given by the two estimators. In the case of a divergence between the two estimators, a study of the divergences makes it possible to determine contamination of the navigator or certain scalar channels and to modify the parameters of the navigator so as to keep a reliable measurement of the position.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2017Publication date: January 17, 2019Applicant: INSTITUT SUPERIEUR DE L'AERONAUTIQUE ET DE L'ESPACEInventor: Vincent Calmettes

Patent number: 9145207Abstract: An aerial micro-drone having a fixed wing supporting a propulsion device. The micro-drone has wheels for traveling on the ground, which are attached to the side ends of a section of the wing. The rotational axis Y1 of the wheels is located in front of the center of gravity of the micro-drone. The center of gravity of the micro-drone is located in front of the aerodynamic center of the micro-drone. The rotational axis Y1 of the wheels being aligned with the thrust axis of the propulsion device and the wheels are sized such that the radius D/2 thereof is greater than the distance between the rotational axis Y1 of the wheels and the trailing edge of the wing.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2012Date of Patent: September 29, 2015Assignee: INSTITUT SUPERIEUR DE L'AERONAUTIQUE ET DE L'ESPACEInventors: Jean-Marc Moschetta, Chinnapat Thipyopas
