Abstract: A Fourier-transform interferometer with self-apodization compensation comprises at least one pair of mobile prisms forming a plate with thickness which varies at the same time as an optical path length difference is itself varied. The prisms are displaced using a mobile system with a single degree of freedom, comprising two support elements and at least two rotatably hinged levers. The interferometer is adapted to be installed on board a satellite, for spectral analysis of a radiation originating from the Earth's surface.

Abstract: A user computing device, method and computer program to display a view to the user are provided. The invention allows a user to display a number of different views with photorealistic rendering of how the view should look like at a view time, based solely on view position, and descriptors of the view. In an aspect, the invention deduces from view position and view time the view descriptors (weather parameters, traffic parameters . . . ); selects, in a collection of images, an image of the view based on view position; modifies the image to match descriptors of the view (for example, by adding a rain effect if the image in the collection is under sunshine and the view should be displayed under rain). Thus, the invention allows displaying photorealistic images of how a view should look like at any time.

Abstract: This relates to a dosimeter including a light source capable of generating a light beam, an optical coupler-splitter, a radio-sensitive optical fiber, a first photodetector arranged to record a power measurement of the light beam transmitted through the radio-sensitive optical fiber, a reference optical arm, a second photodetector arranged to record a reference power measurement of the light beam transmitted through the reference optical arm, and an electronic system configured to extract a differential radiation induced attenuation measurement in the radio-sensitive optical fiber with respect to the reference optical arm. The light beam is non-polarized or depolarized, or, respectively, the light beam is polarized and the radio-sensitive optical fiber is a polarization-maintaining fiber.

Abstract: A device and the associated method for detecting spoofing of GNSS signals are provided. The device includes an RF chain to acquire and down convert a signal comprising one or more GNSS signals transmitted by GNSS sources, each of the GNSS signals comprising a navigation message modulated by a spreading code associated to a related GNSS source, an analog to digital converter, to digitize the down converted signal, and a computer logic, to: calculate over a grid of spreading code phase delays and Doppler shifts, cross-correlation functions between the digitized signal and locally generated replicas of the signal, for one or more of the spreading codes, identify cross-correlation peaks, and analyze the cross-correlation peaks to detect spoofing situations.

Abstract: A damper for an object is placed in a medium subjected to vibrations. The damper has an idle state in the absence of vibrations, a first operating state in case of vibrations of a first type, and a second operating state in case of vibrations of a second type. The level of each vibration of the first type is less than the level of each vibration of the second type. The damper includes an outer support structure, an inner support structure, and at least one pair of membranes formed of a first membrane and a second membrane. Each membrane is formed of a viscoelastic material including fibers aligned substantially in a same direction.

Abstract: There is disclosed a system for locating an object on a surface waveguide. The surface waveguide is made of one or more 1D wires and/or 2D waveguides comprising conductive elements arranged in patterns. Emitters with known positions can couple with receivers coupled with the surface waveguide. The position of receivers can be determined, for example by multilateration or signal strength indication. Conductive elements can be sprayed or sewed or otherwise deposited onto surfaces such as a ground floor, a sidewalk or a road lane. Described developments comprise the use of absorbers, protective layers, unidirectional emitters, contactless coupling, and various arrangements comprising frequency-selective layers, arrangements in lattices, trellis or anisotropic surfaces. Signal processing aspects and software embodiments are also described.

Abstract: A method for transmitting data packets through a random-access (RA) transmission channel shared by a plurality of user terminals uses and exploits a function F for assigning and distributing transmission resources F(u) to the user terminals, knowledge of the graph of which is shared by the sending user terminals and the receiving station in a preliminary step. During the decoding of the received packets, the graph {(u, F(u)} of the assigning and distributing function is exploited by the receiving station to minimize, or even to decrease to zero, the number of replica-location correlations required in case of failure of the conventional CRD-SA protocol decoding process.

Abstract: An RF joint rotating about an axis of rotation (Z) includes a number N, greater than or equal to 1, of RF transmission channels, a first, internal surface of symmetry of revolution about the axis (Z) and of RF transmission having a first, internal radius r1, and a second, external surface of symmetry of revolution about the axis (Z) and of RF transmission having a second, external radius r2, strictly less than the first, internal radius r1. The first and second RF transmission surfaces facing one another and rotationally mobile about the axis (Z) are configured through the first and second radii r1, r2, the geometry of the first and second RF access ports, and the geometry of the first and second RF containment and guidance means, such that: each RF transmission channel Vi, i varying from 1 to N, comprises a first RF rotating waveguide, and the N first RF rotating waveguides are distributed angularly over a predetermined number NC, greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to N, of sections of surfaces of revolution about the axis (Z) of the second RF transmission surface, each of the NC sections being situated along the longitudinal axis of symmetry (Z) at a predetermined different level L1(k).
