  • Patent number: 10581130
    Abstract: A rotary joint including a stator intended to be fastened on a first part of the antenna and defining a transmission surface, and a rotor intended to be fastened on a second part of the antenna and defining a transmission surface, wherein one of the transmission surfaces includes primary means for delimiting electromagnetic signals and the other includes complementary means for delimiting electromagnetic signals; the rotor being mounted rotating relative to the stator such that at least part of the transmission surface of the rotor is positioned across from at least part of the transmission surface of the stator, the facing parts forming at least one transmission path between them for the electromagnetic signals delimited by the primary and complementary delimiting means.

  • Patent number: 10263693
    Abstract: A deployable feed cluster architecture comprises a support and an array of radiofrequency RF sources, each RF source comprising a radiofrequency RF chain and of a radiating element, the RF chain being provided with input/output ports. The architecture comprises a deployable panel that is rotatably articulated about an axis of rotation, the array of RF sources mounted on the panel, the panel being rotatably movable between a first position in which the array of RF sources is stowed on the support and a second position in which the array of RF sources is deployed.
