Abstract: A telecommunication satellite with multi-zone coverage, including at least one transmission and/or reception antenna with at least one transmission and/or reception source (C, R), for the provision or reception of a beam in a selected direction, defined by a selected phase value and a selected amplitude value. At least one of the sources for transmission and/or reception (C, R) is coupled to a processor (MT) for deviation of the beam thereof and the direction of reception in at least one other direction, selected by variation of at least the amplitude value.

Abstract: The invention relates to a telecommunication satellite with multi-zone coverage, comprising at least one transmission and/or reception antenna with a t least one transmission and/or reception source (C, R), for the provision or reception of a beam in a selected direction, defined by a selected phase value and a selected amplitude value. At least one of the sources for transmission and/or reception (C, R) is coupled to processing means (MT) for deviation of the beam thereof and the direction of reception in at least one other direction, selected by variation of at least the amplitude value.

Abstract: An electronic circuit is implemented on a substrate on an electrically conductive bottom plate fixed into an electromagnetic shield box. A coaxial socket is fixed to an outside wall of the shield box, the core of the socket being inserted in a hole in the wall in order to be connected to the electronic circuit. The socket has a grounding surface facing the wall. The grounding contact between the socket and the bottom plate is made by way of an electrically conductive ring coaxial with the core, insulated from the core and simultaneously in electrical contact with the grounding surface of the socket and the bottom plate when the socket is fixed to the wall of the box.
