Abstract:
A data collection device carried on board a satellite and making it possible to localize a source of interference, without using neighboring satellites, comprises: a reception device able to receive the frequency on the ground of the interference; at least three antenna points arranged on the satellite so as to be able to receive a radiofrequency signal coming from the target surface; a processor able to determine the amplitude of the interference signal at the level of each of the antenna points; a connection device able to connect successively each of the antenna points to the processor.
