The invention relates to a communication device for arranging in an aircraft cabin, said device comprising: an antennae assembly designed so as to emit and receive communication data in a first frequency band of a communication network and to receive localization data in a second frequency band of a localization network, said antennae assembly comprising an antenna having a pattern of radiation revolving about a main axis, the radiation being at its maximum in the direction of said main axis, and a system for restraining the radiation, designed to limit the radiation outside said antenna axis; a modem connected to the antenna, designed so as to allow the emission and the reception of communication data via a communication network; and a localization data receiver.

Communication device for an aircraft cabin

This invention relates to a system for emitting electromagnetic beams, comprising a network of elements for the far-field emission of electromagnetic beams, the signals coming from and/or arriving towards each element weighted by excitation coefficients digitally determined by calculation means. According to the invention, the system comprises: a second separate network of sensors arranged close to the network of radiating elements in order to measure the near field radiated by the elements, means for calculating the far field radiated by the network from the near field actually measured by the sensors, and means for calculating the correction of the excitation coefficients of the elements from the difference between the far field calculated from the measurement of the near field and a pre-determined nominal far field.

An antenna uses a photonic forbidden band (PFB) material in which, by default, a surface () for injecting and/or receiving electromagnetic waves in a resonance cavity of the antenna () has at least a width or a length of a diameter higher than or equal to the wavelength of the working frequency.

A multibeam antenna includes: a photonic bandgap material () having at least one band gap; at least one periodicity defect so as to produce at least one narrow bandwidth inside the at least one band gap of the photonic bandgap material, and excitation elements (to) for enabling electromagnetic waves to be received inside the at least one narrow bandwidth. The excitation elements are mutually arranged so as to generate radiating spots (to) partly overlapping on one surface of the photonic bandgap material.

A system includes a device for focusing electromagnetic waves, and a multiple-beam antenna. The antenna includes: a photonic bandgap material () having at least one band gap, at least one periodicity defect () of the photonic bandgap material so as to produce at least one narrow bandwidth within the bandgap material, and excitation elements (to) for transmitting and/or receiving electromagnetic waves within the at least one narrow bandwidth, the elements being arranged relative to one another so as to produce overlapping radiating spots.

Each of the strands being powered by a single conducting wire wherein each of these strands describes an initial segment which is radial relative to a geometric axis perpendicular to the main plane, each of the strands is extended along a circle arc center on this geometric axis and describes a substantially radial segment, directed in the direction of the geometric axis, thus running alongside radial segment directed in a direction of the geometric axis thus running alongside a radial segment of a neighbouring strand without touching the neighbouring strand.
