Abstract: A broadband multi-beam satellite radiocommunication system configured to implement a scheme for re-use of frequencies from a total band allocated to an uplink comprises a satellite with a multi-beam receive antenna that forms adjacent reception spots of a terrestrial coverage. Each reception spot consists of a central inner zone and a peripheral zone. Each central inner zone is a cellular pattern identical except for a scale factor to geographical cells wherein the principal frequency sub-bands of a bundle of separate or adjacent principal sub-bands are unitarily distributed and the combination of which is equal to a principal band, included in the total band.

Abstract: A satellite-based emission and reception device, intended to receive and to process radiofrequency signals originating from an uplink and then to emit the processed signals on a downlink towards terrestrial users, comprises a power divider, two independent frequency converters and two input demultiplexers connected respectively at the output of the two corresponding frequency converters, each frequency converter being controlled by a dedicated local oscillator, the two local oscillators operating at one and the same frequency, the two input demultiplexers comprising channel filters operating in different, disjoint frequency sub-bands spaced apart in frequency, two adjacent frequency sub-bands being filtered by two channel filters belonging to different input demultiplexers.

Abstract: The invention relates to a transition between a ridge waveguide and a planar circuit on which a conductor is provided. The transition includes at least one conductive link connecting the end of said ridge to said conductor between two contact points. According to the invention, the contact points face a common access provided for putting the conductive link in place. It is thus possible to implement the contact points industrially, e.g. by means of a thermocompression machine.
