Les matériaux composites prennent une place de plus en plus importante dans la conception et la fabrication des moyens de transport et notamment dans le domaine naval où ils sont particulièrement privilégiés. En effet, ces matériaux sont utilisés pour leur légèreté, insensibilité à la corrosion et leurs caractéristiques mécaniques. Dans le domaine militaire, où l'optimisation des moyens de communication et de protection électromagnétique est primordiale, le développement de matériaux composites dotés de propriétés de reconfigurabilité sous commande(s) externe(s), présente un atout opérationnel majeur pour les parois structurales exploitant ces matériaux. Afin d'explorer cette voie, DCNS et l'Institut d’Électronique et de Télécommunications de Rennes (IETR, UMR-6164) se sont associés. Les travaux de thèse engagés ont pour objectif d'étudier et de développer des matériaux composites présentant des fonctions de reconfigurabilité applicables aux systèmes navals tels que les radômes, les antennes et exploitables pour répondre aux problématiques de furtivité (SER). Une première étude a permis d'explorer les matériaux à base de carbone, présentant une potentielle agilité de leurs caractéristiques diélectriques sous actuateur électrique. Ces matériaux présentent également un fort pouvoir absorbant électromagnétique, tributaire des propriétés diélectriques, elles-mêmes potentiellement reconfigurables. La seconde étude engagée a étudié l'impact des matériaux ferroélectriques, c'est-à-dire des matériaux reconfigurables sous champ électrique, lorsqu'ils sont intégrés comme charge dans une résine d'imprégnation. Ce nouveau matériau composite présente alors une reconfigurabilité de ses caractéristiques diélectriques, rendant commandable en fréquence sa structure hôte. Une troisième étude, exploitant aussi le matériau ferroélectrique a permis l'obtention d'une reconfigurabilité des caractéristiques de réflectivité de panneaux composites grâce au développement de surfaces sélectives en fréquence reconfigurables. De nouvelles propriétés ont ainsi été mises en évidence en hyperfréquences. Enfin, les matériaux d'âmes et spécifiquement les nids d'abeilles diélectriques ont fait l'étude d'une fonctionnalisation pour des applications DC et hyperfréquences. / Composite materials are used for their lightness, high resistance to corrosion and high mechanical properties over large application areas, such as naval, ground and aerial. Collaboration between DCNS group and the Institute of Electronics and Telecommunications of Rennes (IETR, UMR-6164) has been initiated to develop smart composite materials with tunable properties at microwaves. Three different routes have been investigated during the thesis work. The first one is based on carbon composite material, its electromagnetic absorbing ability and its potential dielectric tunability. For this, we develop composite materials loaded with various carbon particles (carbon nanotube, graphene, black carbon). Next, to elaborate smart composite materials, a ferroelectric material has been used as filler. The dielectric characteristics of such materials can be tuned under external biasing for example. Thus we develop an active composite material under various external actuators for naval application, and especially for new reconfigurable frequency selective surface (RFSS). Finally dielectric honeycomb materials have been specifically elaborated and studied to develop smart properties for DC and microwave applications. During this work, three different prototypes improving composite materials in naval area have been performed: reconfigurable radome, RCS reduction, and antenna isolation.

[pt] Além de apresentar uma visão unificada das técnicas de transmissão digital em blocos e suas combinações com a técnica de múltiplo acesso CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access), esta dissertação examina uma nova possível técnica de transmissão para sistemas com múltiplo acesso, aqui chamada CS-CDMA (Chip-Spread Code Division Multiple Access), combinada com as técnicas de transmissão em blocos, em portadora única (SC-Single Carrier ), gerando o esquema SC CS-CDMA, e em múltiplas portadoras OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing), gerando o esquema MC CSCDMA. Comparações de desempenho com os sistemas de transmissão por blocos CDMA de portadora única conhecido como SC CDMA (Single Carrier Code Division Multiple Access) e de múltiplas portadoras conhecido como MC CDMA (Multi Carrier Code Division Multiple Access) são apresentadas. Uma característica marcante da técnica de transmissão enfocada é que, diferentemente do que ocorre nos sistemas CDMA, a ortogonalidade entre os códigos dos diferentes usuários é mantida mesmo quando a transmissão é feita atravéss de um canal multipercurso seletivo na frequência, permitindo assim que os usuários possam ser idealmente desacoplados na recepção. Além desta vantagem, e muito devido a ela, os resultados de desempenho, obtidos via simulação, indicam uma significativa superioridade do sistema proposto CSCDMA, quando os sinais são transmitidos em portadora única, sobre o tradicional CDMA. Os resultados consideram recepção com equalização no domínio da frequéncia utilizando equalizadores do tipo ZF (Zero Forcing) e MMSE (Minimum Mean Squared Error). / [en] In addition to presenting a unified view of digital blocks transmission technologies and their combinations with the technique of multiple access CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access), this dissertation addresses a new possible transmission technique for multiple access sytem, called here CS -CDMA (Chip-Spread Code Division Multiple Access), combined with blocks transmissions techniques, in single carrier (SC- Single Carrier ), generating scheme SC CS-CDMA, and in multi carrier OFDM (Ortogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing), generating escheme MC CS-CDMA. Performance comparisons with the traditional SC CDMA (Single Carrier Code Division Multiple Access) and MC CDMA (Multi Carrier Code Division Multiple Access) block transmission systemare presented. A key feature of the proposed transmission technique is that, differently from what occurs with CDMA, the original code orthogonality between users is preserved despite propagation through multipath frequency selective channels, thus ideally allowing the decoupling of the signals at the receiver side. Beyond this advantage, and mostly due to it, the performance results indicate a clear superiority of the proposed system CS-CDMA, over the traditional CDMA, when signals are transmitted in single carrier. The simulation results consider frequency domain ZF (Zero Forcing) and MMSE (Minimum Mean Squared Error).

A circular polarised phased array antenna and a frequency selective hybrid radome are designed and evaluated. The antenna system is well suited as a part of a communication link between platforms with a 600 MHz bandwidth and a centre frequency of 5 GHz. A prototype consisting of 8 x 8 patch elements has been designed, manufactured and characterised. The final configuration will be a compact, relatively inexpensive system with single-fed antenna elements. An array antenna with circular polarisation is suitable when the receiver must maintain a strong signal regardless of the relative antenna orientation. The radome protects the antenna and can also reduce both the radar cross section and interference from out-of-band signals. The main focus is to make sure that the phased array antenna and the radome work as one unit and maximise the field of view in which the polarisation is circular. The method to maximise the field of view is to reduce the coupling between antenna elements by using shorting via fences surrounding each element. Following this method results in a total array gain of 18 dBi, 25° half-power beamwidth and a ±35° maximum scan angle with maintained circular polarisation. Prototype measurements agree well with the simulated results. / En cirkulärpolariserad fasstyrd gruppantenn samt en frekvensselektiv hybrid-radom har designats och utvärderats. Antennsystemet lämpar sig väl som en kommunikationslänk mellan plattformar med en 600 MHz bandbredd och centerfrekvens 5 GHz. En prototyp besåtende av 8 × 8 patchelement har designats, tillverkats och karaktäriserats. Den slutgiltiga konfigurationen resulterade i ett kompakt och relativt billigt system med single-matade antennelement. En gruppantenn med cirkulär polarisation är lämplig när mottagaren måste bibehålla en stark signal oavsett antennens relativa orientering. Radomen skyddar antennen från väder och vind och kan även minska både radarmålsarean och störningar från utombandiga signaler. Huvudfokus är att se till att den fasstyrda gruppantennen och radomen fungerar som en enhet och maximerar scan-området i vilket polarisationen är cirkulär. Metoden för att maximera detta område är att minska kopplingen mellan antennelementen genom att använda ett kortslutande viastaket som omsluter varje element. Metoden resulterar i totalt 18 dBi array gain, 25° half-power beamwidth och en maximal utstyrningsvinkel på ±35° med bibehållen cirkulär polarisation. Prototypens mätresultat stämmer väl överens med simulationsresultaten.

In heterogeneous dense networks where spectrum is shared, users' privacy remains one of the major challenges. On a multi-antenna relay-assisted multi-carrier interference channel, each user shares the spectral and spatial resources with all other users. When the receivers are not only interested in their own signals but also in eavesdropping other users' signals, the cross talk on the spectral and spatial channels becomes information leakage. In this paper, we propose a novel secrecy rate enhancing relay strategy that utilizes both spectral and spatial resources, termed as information leakage neutralization. To this end, the relay matrix is chosen such that the effective channel from the transmitter to the colluding eavesdropper is equal to the negative of the effective channel over the relay to the colluding eavesdropper and thus the information leakage to zero. Interestingly, the optimal relay matrix in general is not block-diagonal which encourages users' encoding over the frequency channels. We proposed two information leakage neutralization strategies, namely efficient information leakage neutralization (EFFIN) and local-optimized information leakage neutralization (LOPTIN). EFFIN provides a simple and efficient design of relay processing matrix and precoding matrices at the transmitters in the scenario of limited power and computational resources. LOPTIN, despite its higher complexity, provides a better sum secrecy rate performance by optimizing the relay processing matrix and the precoding matrices jointly. The proposed methods are shown to improve the sum secrecy rates over several state-of-the-art baseline methods.

Τα συστήματα πολλαπλών κεραιών στον πομπό και στο δέκτη (MIMO) αποτελούν βασικά μέτωπα ανάπτυξης των ασύρματων επικοινωνιών. Ωστόσο, η εφαρμογή της τεχνολογίας MIMO στα κινητά δίκτυα επικοινωνιών αντιμετωπίζει το πρακτικό πρόβλημα της ενσωμάτωσης πολλαπλών κεραιών σε μικρά κινητά τερματικά. Με σκοπό την αντιμετώπιση του εμποδίου αυτού, δημιουργήθηκε ένα άλλο σημαντικό μέτωπο έρευνας, αυτό των συνεργατικών επικοινωνιών. Στο πλαίσιο της παρούσας διδακτορικής διατριβής ασχοληθήκαμε με την ανάπτυξη και μελέτη αλγορίθμων επεξεργασίας σήματος για τα δύο παραπάνω συστήματα. Σχετικά με τα συστήματα MIMO η πρωτοποριακή έρευνα που πραγματοποιήθηκε στα Bell labs στα μέσα της δεκαετίας του ΄90, απέδειξε ότι η χρήση πολλαπλών κεραιών μπορεί να οδηγήσει σε σημαντική αύξηση της χωρητικότητας των ασύρματων συστημάτων βελτιώνοντας την αξιοπιστία της μετάδοσης. Προκειμένου να αξιοποιηθούν οι παραπάνω δυνατότητες απαιτείται η σχεδίαση σύνθετων δεκτών MIMO. Προς αυτήν την κατεύθυνση έχει στραφεί ένας μεγάλος αριθμός μεθόδων ισοστάθμισης του καναλιού και πιο συγκεκριμένα δεκτών ανατροφοδότησης αποφάσεων. Δεδομένου ότι σε ευρυζωνικά συστήματα επικοινωνιών το ασύρματο κανάλι είναι άγνωστο στο δέκτη και μεταβάλλεται χρονικά, στραφήκαμε προς τις προσαρμοστικές μεθόδους ισοστάθμισης. Στα πλαίσια της διαριβής αναζήτησαμε προσαρμοστικούς αλγόριθμους κατάλληλους για τη σχεδίαση προσαρμοστικών ισοσταθμιστών MIMO DFE με τα εξής χαρακτηριστικά: 1) να παρουσιάζουν απόδοση (ταχύτητα σύγκλισης) συγκρίσιμη με αυτή του RLS, 2) η υπολογιστική τους πολυπλοκότητα να είναι μικρότερη από αυτή του RLS και 3) να είναι αριθμητικά ευσταθείς. ΄Εχει αποδειχθεί ότι προσαρμοστικοί αλγόριθμοι που βασίζονται στη μέθοδο των συζυγών κλίσεων (conjugate gradient (CG)) πληρούν τις παραπάνω προϋποθέσεις. Αρχικά αναζητήσαμε τεχνικές που βασίζονται στη μέθοδο αυτή και χρησιμοποιούνται σε προβλήματα προσαρμοστικού φιλτραρίσματος και πιο ειδικά, στο πρόβλημα προσαρμοστικής ισοστάθμισης διαύλου στη περίπτωση SISO. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, υλοποιήσαμε έναν προσαρμοστικό αλγόριθμο στο πεδίο των συχνοτήτων που επεξεργάζεται τα δεδομένα κάθε φορά που λαμβάνεται ένα νέο εισερχόμενο πακέτο δεδομένων. Ο προτεινόμενος ισοσταθμιστής πετυχαίνει μια πολύ καλή απόδοση, ενώ οι υπολογιστικές του απαιτήσεις είναι πολύ χαμηλές. Στη συνέχεια αναπτύξαμε τρεις νέους αλγορίθμους προσαρμοστικής ισοστάθμισης συχνοτικά επιλεκτικών συστημάτων MIMO, που βασίζονται στη μέθοδο CG και στις προβολές Galerkin. Το πρόβλημα σχεδιασμού προσαρμοστικών MIMO DFE αντιμετωπίζεται ως ένα πρόβλημα επίλυσης γραμμικών εξισώσεων, με πολλαπλά δεξιά μέλη, που εξελίσσεται στο χρόνο. Επισημαίνουμε ότι τα σχήματα που προτείνουμε θα μπορούσαν να αποτελέσουν ένα γενικότερο πλαίσιο σχεδίασης προσαρμοστικών δεκτών για συχνοτικά επιλεκτικά συστήματα MIMO, με ιδιότητες σύγκλισης παρόμοιες με αυτές του RLS, έχοντας, ωστόσο, μικρότερες υπολογιστικές απαιτήσεις. Στα πλαίσια της παρούσας διδακτορικής διατριβής αναπτύξαμε τεχνικές εκτίμησης καναλιού για συνεργατικά δίκτυα με N αναμεταδότες που είτε ενισχύουν και αναμεταδίδουν ή αποκωδικοποιούν και αναμεταδίδουν το λαμβανόμενο σήμα. ΄Ολες οι τεχνικές εκτίμησης που προτείναμε υλοποιούνται εξ΄ ολοκλήρου στο πεδίο των συχνοτήτων. Αρχικά παρουσιάσαμε τεχνικές που βασίζονται στη μετάδοση πιλοτικών συμβόλων σε συγκεκριμένες συχνοτικές συνιστώσες. Στη συνέχεια αποδείξαμε ότι όλα τα κανάλια από την πηγή μέσω των αναμεταδοτών προς τον προορισμό μπορούν να εκτιμηθούν τυφλά εάν γνωρίζουμε τις φάσεις της απόκρισης συχνότητας του ασύρματου καναλιού μεταξύ πηγής και προορισμού.. Επιπρόσθετα, πραγματοποιήθηκε ϑεωρητική ανάλυση της απόδοσης των προτεινόμενων σχημάτων η οποία επαληθεύτηκε μέσω προσομοιώσεων σε υπολογιστή. Τέλος, αξιολογήσαμε πειραματικά διάφορα πρωτόκολλα συνεργατικής επικοινωνίας (AF, DF, SF) και τεχνικές κατανεμημένης χωροχρονικής επεξεργασίας DSTC για συνεργατικά δίκτυα σε μια πλατφόρμα υλοποίησης πραγματικού χρόνου που χρησιμοποιεί επεξεργαστές ψηφιακής επεξεργασίας σήματος. Διαπιστώσαμε ότι τα πειραματικά αποτελέσματα συμφωνούν πλήρως με τα θεωρητικά. / Systems employing multiple antennas at the transmitter and the receiver, known as MIMO (multiinput multioutput) systems, as well as space time coding techniques developed for such systems, are two of the main technologies employed for the evolution of wireless communications. However, the application of MIMO technology to mobile networks, often faces the practical implementation problem of having too many antennas on a small mobile terminal. In an attempt to overcome such a severe limitation, cooperative communication schemes have been proposed. This PhD dissertation, described our work on the design and analysis of signal processing algorithms for the two aforementioned systems, as is described in detail next. Concerning MIMO systems, the pioneering work performed at Bell Labs in the middle of the nineties, proved that the use of multiple antennas can lead to a significant increase in wireless systems capacity. To exploit this potential, sophisticated MIMO receivers should be designed. To this end, a large amount of channel equalizers and, more specifically, decision feedback equalizers has been proposed. Because these assumptions are difficult to meet in high rate single carrier systems, we have focused our attention on decision feedback equalizers. . Our main goal is to derive algorithms for updating the MIMO DFE filters with the following characteristics: 1) convergence properties similar to these of the RLS 2) more computationally efficient than RLS and 3) numerically stable. It is known that adaptive algorithms based on the CG (conjugate gradient) have the above characteristics We initially studied this method as an iterative method for solving linear equations and we pointed out the main differences with the steepest descent method, on which the LMS algorithm is based. An extended search of adaptive DFE algorithms, based on the CG method was carried out. More specifically, a new block adaptive CG algorithm was developed. In the resulting algorithm, one CG iteration per block update is executed. In order to reduce even more the complexity, the algorithm was implemented in the Frequency Domain. The proposed equalizer offers a good performance - complexity trade off. Three new adaptive equalization algorithms for wireless systems operating over frequency selective MIMO channels, based on the CG method and the Galerkin projection method, are proposed. The problem of MIMO decision feedback equalizer (DFE) design is formulated as a set of linear equations with multiple righthand sides (RHSs) evolving in time. These schemes provide a flexible framework in MIMO adaptive equalization design to implement schemes with convergence properties comparable to the RLS, but of lower computational cost. Furthermore, we worked on channel estimation for cooperative communication networks, where the nodes either simply amplify and forward the received signal, or they decode and transmit the signal (DF). We first propose efficient channel estimation techniques for relay networks with N relays. The new methods are implemented in the frequency domain (FD). Initially, training based techniques are presented, where the training pilots are multiplexed with the data in the frequency domain. It is then shown that all the channels in the network can be estimated blindly provided that we know the phases of the frequency response of the (Source → Destination) channel. Thus, by making use of a small number of pilots in only one link (the sourcetodestination link) we can estimate all the other channels (Source→Relay i→Destination) in the network. A theoretical performance study of the proposed algorithms is presented and closed form expressions for the mean squared channel estimation error are provided. The presented theoretical analysis is verified by extensive Monte Carlo simulations. The application of the derived schemes to the DF case, and the impact of erroneous detection to their performance are also studied. Finally, we investigated experimentally four cooperative relaying schemes: amplify and forward (AF), detect and forward (DF), cooperative maximum ratio combining (CMRC) and distributed spacetime coding (DSTC), and one novel selection relaying (SR) scheme on a realtime DSP based testbed. The experimental results are fairly close to the ones predicted by theory

Le brouillard électromagnétique dans lequel nous vivons en permanence estaujourd’hui montré du doigt car, outre les risques sanitaires qu’il pourrait engendrer, illimite l’usage de certaines technologies. L’importance des interférences entre réseauxsans fil, ou la peur du piratage sur ces mêmes réseaux, en sont deux exemples. Cetravail de thèse vise à développer un nouveau moyen de protection contre certaines deces ondes électromagnétiques. Plus spécifiquement, ce travail se focalise sur unetechnologie capable de filtrer uniquement les ondes WiFi et GSM à travers de grandessurfaces d’une habitation, comme un mur. Pour ce faire, la fonctionnalisation d’uncomposant standard des bâtiments, le papier-peint, a été étudié.L’utilisation de surfaces sélectives en fréquence a été retenue. Ces motifs sontdirectement imprimés sur du papier à l’aide d’encre conductrice et de la techniqued’impression flexographique. L’étude s’est également portée sur la réalisation de motifsde filtrage innovants. Les résultats de simulation montrent qu’ils sont capables de filtrerdeux ou trois bandes, qu’ils sont quasiment insensibles à la polarisation et à l’angled’incidence dans une plage allant de 0° à ± 80°. Le travail a ensuite permis dedémontrer la faisabilité pratique de ce concept aux stades laboratoire et industriel.Ensuite, nous avons démontré expérimentalement l’efficacité de ce concept dans lesbandes WiFi. La transmission atteint alors -30 dB. Enfin, une validation expérimentaledu produit en situation réelle a été menée, à savoir la pose du papier-peint sur du plâtre,du bois, l’influence de la colle ou encore la pose d’une couche de papier-peint décoratifpar-dessus le produit.En conclusion, les résultats pratiques obtenus confirment les résultats théoriquesestimés et, permettent à ce nouveau concept, appelé métapapier, d’être suffisammentefficace pour permettre la réduction des ondes WiFi ou GSM. / The electromagnetic smog in which we live today is nowadays a real issue because it limits the use of certain technologies and also because there are some potential health risks associated with it, even if the latter is still a controversial subject. The importance of the interferences between wireless networks or the possibility of data hacking on the same networks are two examples. The aim of this thesis is to develop a new way to protect buildings against some of these electromagnetic waves. More specifically, this work focuses on a technology able to filter only the WiFi and the GSM waves through large areas of a home, like a wall for example. To do this, the functionalization of a standard component of buildings, the wallpaper, was studied. The use of frequency selective surface (FSS) was chosen. These patterns are printed directly on paper with a conductive ink printing technology: the flexography. The study also focuses on the realization of innovative filter designs. Simulation results show that these novel FSS are able to filter two or three bands. They are almost insensitive to the polarization and to the angle of incidence in the range of 0° to ±80°. The realization feasibility of this concept in a laboratory or in industrial conditions was demonstrated. Next, an experimental demonstration of this concept in the WiFi bands was carried out. In this context, the transmission coefficient was reached -30 dB. Finally, an experimental validation of the product in real conditions of use was conducted, namely the wallpaper was put over plasterboards or over wood panels. Also, the influence of the glue on the general performances and the placement of a decorative wallpaper over the FSS wallpaper were studied. In conclusion, the practical results obtained confirm and validate the theoretical predictions of this new concept, called metapaper, and show that the practical realizations are efficient enough to allow the reduction of WiFi or GSM signals.

This happens because the flexibility of the substrate can provide previously impracticable applications, due to the rigidity of the substrates normally used that makes it difficult to fit into the circuits in irregular surfaces. The constant interest in recent years for more lighter devices, increasingly more compacts, flexible and with low cost, led to a new line of research of great interest from both academic and technological views, that is the study and development of textile substrates that can be applied in the development of planar circuits, for applications in the areas of security, biomedical and telecommunications. This paper proposes the development of planar circuits, such as antennas , frequency selective surfaces (FSS) and planar filters, using textile (cotton ticking, jeans and brim santista) as the dielectric substrate and the Pure Copper Polyester Taffeta Fabric, a textile of pure copper, highly conductive, lightweight and flexible, commercially sold as a conductive material. The electrical characteristics of textiles (electric permittivity and loss tangent) were characterized using the transmission line method (rectangular waveguide) and compared with those found in the literature. The structures were analyzed using commercial software Ansoft Designer and Ansoft HFSS, both from the company Ansys and for comparison we used the Iterative Method of Waves (WCIP). For the purpose of validation were built and measured several prototypes of antennas, planar filters and FSS, being possible to confirm an excellent agreement between simulated and measured results / A utiliza??o de materiais flex?veis para o desenvolvimento de circuitos planares ? uma das caracter?sticas mais desejadas e estudadas, ultimamente, pelos pesquisadores, pois essa maleabilidade do substrato proporciona aplica??es antes imposs?veis, devido ? rigidez dos substratos normalmente utilizados o que dificultava a adequa??o dos circuitos em superf?cies irregulares.
