  • Patent number: 9338587
    Abstract: A system and method for radio frequency tagging a transmitter of a useful first signal Su, by a tagging second signal Ctag, the signals are transmitted simultaneously, comprises at least the following elements: signal generation means adapted: to produce a useful signal Su in a given frequency band B, at a frequency fSu and an amplitude ASu, and to determine, from the values of the band parameter BSu of the useful signal Su and from the amplitude ASu of the useful signal Su, the parameters of the tagging signal Ctag, a transmission antenna adapted to simultaneously transmit said signal Su and said tagging signal, the level of which is X dB lower than the useful signal Su, means for receiving and processing the useful signal and the tagging signal adapted to discriminate the tagging signal from the useful signal.

  • Patent number: 8125213
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a system for extracting and analyzing radioelectric signals of interest. It includes an integer number N of channels. Each channel Vi includes a receiver linked to an analog signals digital acquisition device delivering a digital signal SNi. Each channel Vi includes a bank of polyphase filters, extracting digital signals SEi from the digital signal SNi. The digital signals SEi each have a smaller frequency bandwidth than that of the digital signal SNi. The system includes at least one extracted digital signals distribution device suitable for receiving the digital signals SEi and distributing SEi to one or more processing and storage units. The processing and storage units are suitable for the analysis, characterization and storage of the digital signals received. Embodiments of the invention apply to the system for the radio-monitoring of radioelectric emissions in real time or in deferred time.
