  • Publication number: 20230258816
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for processing a radionavigation signal generated by a satellite (SAT), said method comprising the following steps implemented in a processing unit of a radionavigation receiver: converting (102) the radionavigation signal into the frequency domain by means of a complex Fourier transform so as to obtain a frequency-domain radionavigation signal comprising a real part I and an imaginary part Q, the real part I having an amplitude I2 associated with one frequency; determining (103) a distribution law of the amplitude I2 of the real component I of the frequency-domain radionavigation signal; determining (104) an amplitude of the real component for which the distribution function is zero, said amplitude defining a threshold; processing (105) the frequency-domain radionavigation signal so as to filter components the amplitude of which is higher than the determined threshold.

  • Patent number: 11329736
    Abstract: An equipment comprising an array of radio antennas and a switching device placed as a cutoff between the antennas and the associated reception channels, the switching device comprising a first so-called operational operating mode wherein each input interface is then connected directly to a different output interface so as to connect each antenna with at least the associated reception channel thereof, and a second so-called calibration operating mode, wherein an input interface corresponding to a predetermined antenna is then connected to all the output interfaces so as to transmit the electrical signal coming from the predetermined antenna to all the reception channels, the equipment being adapted for implementing a method for autocalibration of the reception channels when the switching device is in the second operating mode.
