Radiofrequency signal receiver designed to be installed on a satellite

Abstract

A receiver for radiofrequency signals designed to be installed on board a satellite comprises: a device for frequency controlling the receiver allowing the reception frequency of the receiver to be adjusted based on a frequency command; and a filtering assembly of the bandpass filter type having a passband, referred to as passband of the filtering assembly, having an adjustable passband width able to take a set of values, the filtering assembly allowing the bandwidth of a first signal representative of the input signal of the receiver to be limited to the passband of the filtering assembly; adjustment means allowing the width of the passband of the filtering assembly to be adjusted using a filtering passband control; power acquisition means allowing a measurement of the power of the first signal to be delivered at the output of the filtering assembly.
