Guerrero, Enriquez Rubén Dario. "Etude des filtres miniatures LTCC High K en bandes L&S." Thesis, Brest, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016BRES0036/document.
Full textIn current communication systems, whether terrestrial or spatial, whether fixed or mobile, there is a real interest in developing high performance miniature RF front-ends. This is applied in particular to filter devices, in which the size and the quality factors are clearly in conflict. For low frequency bands around the GHz, the wavelengths remain significant, making it difficult the miniaturization efforts. On the other hand, we must also ensure that these filters will be easily interconnected with other other system components, including active devices.For all these reasons, the development of multilayer filter structures using high permittivity substrates (Er = 68) in an LTCC approach is consolidated as an interesting alternative. It may lead to a significant footprint reduction without decreasing the electrical performances.As part of this work, two multilayer filter structures have been developed to meet the given specifications in L and S bands, given by a space manufacturer. These filters have as main features a high rejection level and low losses in the passband. To meet the specifications, a vertically stacked SIW filter and a short-circuited stubs filter in a stripline configuration were studied. The SIW filter is characterized by a high quality factor, which results in low insertion loss and good flatness. The stubs filter allows in contrast to reduce the footprint but at the price of impacting the electrical performance. In both cases we take advantage of the flexibility offered by the LTCC technology as it finally provides an additional freedom degree compared to a conventional planar approach. For the SIW filter, the topological architecture was studied and designed in detail, to be able to arrange and synthetize couplings between twelve cavities. In a similar way, for the stub filter a synthesis that takes profit of all the offered freedom degrees was developed.Given the filters complexity, especially due to the high order and the implementation of “electrical walls" based on specific vias patterns, a close attention must be paid during the simulation and optimization phase. In addition, the high permittivity substrate does not allow to conceive 50-Ohms lines. Finally, access transitions constitute a challenging task, especially for the SIW case.This thesis was co-funded by CNES (Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales) and Thales Alenia Space, and was accompanied by an R&T project funded by CNES. The German foundry Via Electronic was responsible for the filters fabrication

Full textThe PEGASES ion thruster differs from standard electric propulsion technologies through its use of electronegative gases, such as SF₆, as a propellant. Its operation relies on the trapping of electrons using a magnetic field and the creation of a plasma dominated by positive and negative ions. These ions are alternately accelerated to produce thrust, and later undergo a recombination to ensure beam neutrality. This thruster eliminates the need for an electron-producing neutralizer, which is a standard feature in other sources such as the Hall thruster. This thesis is divided into three parts. The first describes the development and implementation of a new EXB probe for the study of the ion beam properties, the identification of the beam chemical composition and the verification of the presence of negative and positive ion species. The second part concerns the design and application of a new laser photodetachment diagnostic for the measurement of the negative ion fraction. Lastly, a new ion-ion thruster with a circular geometry, known as AIPE, has been designed, constructed and successfully tested. This prototype eliminates the plasma asymmetry present in PEGASES and reveals the importance of the magnetic filter to source operation

Full textLes travaux présentés portent sur la conception, la réalisation et la métrologie de miroirs multicouches périodiques. La motivation principale de cette étude est de mettre en place un cycle de développement prenant en compte à la fois les propriétés optiques du pouvoir réflecteur des revêtements réfléchissants (réflectivité, sélectivité spectrale, atténuation) mais aussi l'environnement d'utilisation des optiques.
Afin d'améliorer les propriétés de sélectivité spectrale, de nouvelles structures multicouches périodiques ont été développées. Elles se caractérisent par un pouvoir réflecteur qui réfléchit bien deux régions spectrales ajustables et introduit des atténuations paramétrables.
L'effet de l'environnement sur la stabilité des performances est particulièrement critique pour les optiques de collection. L'ajout de matériaux barrières a permis de stabiliser les performances du pic de réflectivité pendant plus de 200 h à 400°C et de réduire l'influence des autres facteurs d'instabilité sur le pouvoir réflecteur.
De plus, toutes les structures réalisées ont été évaluées avec succès en environnements climatiques sévères.

Full textDevelopment can be understood from many perspectives. Among those, the one proposed by Amartya Sen states that a development policy should aim at expanding the freedom of individuals, and this goal can be achieved by the expansion of capabilities. With this conceptual framework in mind, health, more specifically infant mortality, is chosen as a measure of development and as the object of study. The Government should guarantee the provision of health services, as they consist in meritory goods. Mosley and Chen (1984) propose a theoretical framework to study infant mortality based on the proximal determinants, in which the socioeconomic factors affect the result observed indirectly. In Brazil there has been a substantial reduction of the average levels of infant mortality rates in the last decades. However, there is still a significant regional inequality. Econometric models for 1980, 1991 and 2000 are estimated including a spatial filter in order to account for the spatial dependency observed in the data. The study concludes that health infrastructure lost its explanative power for the differences in infant mortality rate among the localities. On the other hand, socioeconomic variables have become more relevant and significant. It means that future public policies must try to improve the access of the families to public facilities, reduce poverty and inequality and improve educational levels. Therefore, the family-based prevention against health problems should be stimulated, helping to avoid premature death

Full textAt a time when the amount of information and the number of users go through the roof in telecommunication market, the telecommunication systems tend to improve the management of their capacity by moving toward reconfigurable RF devices. However frequency and bandwidth allocated are still restricted. Regarding tunable OMUX filters, the actuation systems generally degrade the overall performances of the device and raise questions in terms of mechanic and thermic.We first demonstrated the feasability of a two state filter with constant narrowband, using a dielectric material (alumina) in rotation inside a metallic housing. Then, we suggested solutions to control both frequency and bandwidth with the translation of a ceramics. We deal with quality factor in the range of ten of thousands for these applications. Eventually, we validated some principle for tunable filters thanks to the efficiency of 3D plastic printer

Full textThe objective of this thesis is to come up with and test a new method for the measurement of space charge in very thin insulating films with a high spatial resolution. The proposed method is called Electro-Acoustic Reflectometry (EAR) method. The EAR method relies on the electro-elastic coupling of the sample under test. Both excitation and measurement are of electrical nature and are performed in frequency domain. A microwave setup is used for high frequency measurements. The measurement principle is the generation of ultasonic waves when space charge undergoes an applied electrical field. The energy that is used up in the generation of these waves leaves a feature in the reflection of the electrical excitation. It is this feature that is used to find the space charge distribution by a simple inverse Fourier transform. A measurement setup comprising a vector network analyser, a dedicated sample holder and an acquistion interface allows to test the EAR method. The obtained results are promising. A bulk spatial resolution of 1.2µm has been demonstrated. It exceeds the current best spatial resolution achieved by existing conventionnal ultrasonic methods by a factor of about 10. To further enhance the spatiale resolution of the EAR method, it is necessary to broaden the measurement frequency range. An approach to deal with the problems occuring at high frequnecy is proposed

The Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (squid) sensor is the most sensitive device available to detect magnetic flux.Due to its high sensitivity, SQUIDs are often coupled to gradiometers - a set superconducting coils connect in a subtractive way - in order to reduce environmental noise. Because the response of the sensor depends on the gradiometer geometry it is of great importance the development of an analytical model that accurately reproduces the gradiometer effects over the output signal and also helps in the design of such devices. A novel model based on signal processing methods is proposed in this Thesis, which considers gradiometers as multi-dimensional spatial filters with the magnetic field as input and the net magnetic flux as output. The main configurations found in the literature are compared and commented, and gradiometers are designed to detect magnetic field in a typical application of SQUID sensors.Moreover,it is studie the decovolution issue, which allows the obtainment of the magnetic field( what is to be measured in most cases )from flux measuresmentes (what is actully measured by SQUID sensors.

Full textVisuospatial attention is an information selection and processing mechanism whose overt manifestations consist of head or gaze shifts. In anticipation to new information, the focus of attention can also covertly shift to peripheral vision to share attention between two distinct locations: the overt one (center of gaze) and the covert one in periphery. In such a situation, the reaction to a target appearing at the focus of attention is enhanced with respect to targets appearing at unattended locations. This thesis addresses the problem of detecting the location of covert attention by decoding neural activity measured by electroencephalography (EEG) before target onset in 3 experiments on healthy subjects. The first experiment uses visuospatial cues that are non-informative about the target location. However, the neural activity reflects that non-informative cues tend to bring the subjects into a state related to alertness, motor preparation or temporal expectation rather than a spatial shift of attention. According to this result, the second experiment uses an ambiguous precueing condition in which the sujet's attention is shifted to spatial locations which bear a non-systematic relation to the information contained in the cues. With these ambiguous cues, we find that the proportion of targets displayed at unattended locations is equivalent to a non-informative condition, and that reaction speed and accuracy are dramatically impacted

Full textHyperspectral mosaic filter appears to be the perfect solution to lighten the spectral imagers used in space missions. Such applications require the use of multilayer interference filters. This work aims to find solutions to achieve hyperspectral mosaic filter with interference filters rather than the conventionally used coloured resins. In order to achieve this, a theoretical study on the simplification of multilayer designs was performed. It appears that the stacks are thicker, which makes them difficult to pattern. Several methods of patterning were studied, especially the lift-off technique which is traditionally used and the lift-up. The latter has the advantage to avoid adding the technological risk associated with each filter production. A trade-off between these two techniques was done as well as experimental productions. These were then characterized by a bench developed for this purpose which has experimentally validate the technique used

Full textThis work concerns the study of spatio-temporal operators on focal plane arrays. The first chapter of the thesis analyzes the various spatiotemporal operators and their integration within the retina. This survey has been illustrated by the conception of a retina for the tracking of less-than-one-pixel target detection. The algorithm implanted in this retina is constituted of a complex filtering and an operator of lateral inhibition with threshold. The integration of these operators was possible by developing a functional simulator that permitted to choose operators and to evaluate the influence of second order phenomena as the charge injection on the global performances of the circuit. The focal plane array has been implanted in CMOS 0. 8 mM technology. In the first appendix of the thesis is presented an original analog operator for synchronous detection operating from a rate of 10 kHz to 1 MHz. This operator has been implanted in CMOS 0. 6 mM technology

Full textThe fatigue and ageing of metal materials under operation conditions are major concerns in energy production plants. An early and non-destructive diagnostic of surface defects would allow one to carry out relevant preventive maintenance operations without dismantling or prematurely changing healthy components. Nowadays, most of the automated non-destructive testing (NDT) solutions available to detect the surface-breaking defects are based on ultrasound or eddy current techniques. Despite their high sensitivity and spatial resolution, they are unable to meet all the requirements of every real situation. Consequently, in order to supplement the available acoustic and electromagnetic NDT toolkits, it sounds relevant to evaluate the potential of new techniques to detect micro-cracks on metal surfaces. The aim of this work is the development of microwave methods allowing the detection of surface-breaking defects on metals. In this report, we demonstrate how micro-cracks at the surface of metals can be detected and imaged by using near-field microwave resonators. In particular, we present simulation data and measurement results carried out on mock-ups with EDM rectangular surface notches highlighting the high sensitivity and spatial resolution of the original dual-behavior resonator (DBR) filter probes

Full textThe impact of noise on humans is increasingly at the heart of health issues. In a context of intense industrial competitiveness, these issues lie at the heart of the automotive sector, a truth that also applies to the tire industry. With the rise of electric vehicles, the rolling noise previously masked by other sources of vehicle-related noise pollution poses a real problem for passenger comfort. Vehicle structure, tires, and suspension systems can attenuate some of the undesirable effects of tire-road contact at high and low frequencies. However, few technical solutions have been deployed to address the vibratory phenomena transmitted by tire-wheel assemblies operating between 200 and 500 Hz. One reason for this, these tire-wheel assemblies present complex dynamics dependent on multiple factors, such as their internal pressure, loads, and rotation speed. This thesis is structured around three axes: a deeper understanding of the dynamic behavior of tire-wheel assemblies, the development and control of a set of experimental devices, and the realization of a system and a control law to reduce the forces transmitted in the hubs. Work carried out on four different experimental setups enabled us to minimize the uncertainties associated with the evolving dynamics of the structure to be controlled, thereby allowing for a better definition of the proposed solution's field of action. Based on these results, a network of piezoelectric transducers, used as sensors and actuators, has been proposed. Various robust control solutions have been suggested, including one that combines active control and a spatial modal filter, and another that exploits a sliding-mode controller. These solutions were first studied numerically using models based on experimental data, and then tested on the full-scale structure. In parallel with this work, robustness studies of the proposed solutions were carried out. The most advanced control system was finally tested under realistic operating conditions, involving loading, contact with the tire similar to that obtained with the roadway, and rotation of the assembly. Attenuation of the two target modes was achieved for different rotation speeds

While bats are one of the most intriguing creatures to the general population, they are also a popular subject of study in various disciplines. Their extraordinary ability to navigate and forage irrespective of clutter using echolocation has gotten attention from many scientists and engineers. Research investigating bats typically includes analysis of acoustic signals from microphones and/or microphone arrays. Using time difference of arrival (TDOA) between the array elements or the microphones is probably the most popular method to locate flying bats (azimuth and elevation). Microphone responses to transmitted signals and echoes near a bat provide sound pressure but no directional information. This dissertation proposes a complementary way to the current TDOA methods, that delivers directional information by introducing spatial audio techniques. This work shows a couple of feasible methods based on spatial audio techniques, that can both track bats in flight and pinpoint the directions of echoes received by a bat. An ultrasonic tetrahedral soundfield microphone is introduced as a measurement tool for sounds in the sonar frequency range (20-80 kHz) of the big brown bat (Eptesicus fuscus). Ambisonics, a signal processing technique used in three-dimensional (3D) audio applications, is used for the basic processing of the signals measured by the soundfield microphone. Ambisonics also reproduces a measured signal containing its directional properties. As the first method, a spatial audio decoding technique called HARPEx (High Angular Resolution Planewave Expansion) was used to build a system providing angle and elevation estimates. HARPEx can estimate the direction of arrivals (DOA) for up to two simultaneous sound sources. Experiments proved that the estimation system based on HARPEx provides accurate DOA estimates of static or moving sources. The performance of the system was also assessed using statistical analyses of simulations. Medians and RMSEs (root-mean-square error) of 10,000 simulations for each simulation case represent the accuracy and precision of the estimations, respectively. Results show shorter distance between a capsule and the soundfield microphone center, or/and higher SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) are required to achieve higher performance. For the second method, the matched-filter technique is used to build another estimation system. This is a sonar-like estimation system that provides information of the target (range, direction, and velocity) using matched-filter responses and sonar fundamentals. Experiments using a loudspeaker (emitter) and an artificial or natural target (either stationary or moving) show the system provides accurate estimates of the target's direction and range. Simulations imitating a situation where a bat emits a pulse and receives an echo from a target (30°) were also performed. The system processed the virtual bat pulse and echo, and accurately estimated the direction, range, and velocity of the target. The suggested methods provide accurate estimates of the direction, range, or/and velocity of a bat based on its pulses or of a target based on echoes. This demonstrates these methods can be used as key tools to reconstruct bat biosonar. They would be also an independent tool or a complementary option to TDOA based methods, for bat echolocation studies. The developed methods are also believed to be useful in improving sonar technology.

Full textImproving the lives of people with disabilities is a major challenge in our society. In the case of a handicap due to deficiencies of the sensory-motor system, surgical or drug solutions can rarely restore the altered functions. More technological solutions may in some cases be used to bypass problematic malfunction of the nervous system. One solution is to control certain functions by functional electrical stimulation. For this to be effective stimulation and approaches the natural control an interesting approach is to use natural touch sensors in the system control loop. As part of this thesis, we focus on electrical systems acquisition neurological signals from the peripheral nervous system. The idea is that the information from the afferent nerve fibers obtained using extra-neural electrodes (eg. Cuff) could help to "capture" the sensory information from several sensors natural without being too invasive. The main difficulty of this technique and to discriminate the activity of a fiber or group of fibers from the composite signal received by the electrode. This signal includes, in fact, information from a large number of afferent and efferent very different origin. One possible approach is to discriminate the information of different fibers from their physiological and anatomical features. The work presented in this manuscript are looking to improve the selectivity of the collection based on the propagation speed of the different fibers. Note that no truly viable solution exists in the literature on this principle of selectivity. The first objective was therefore to prove that in an ideal case (ideal filter), it would be possible to make effective discrimination. Our work is based on studies of temporal, spatial and spatio-temporal order to assess the possibilities of extracting useful information from the simulated extracellular potentials. The simulations were performed from a realistic acquisition system model developed from the parameters of the model and biophysiological electrode model and associated preamplifier. Based on the promising results obtained in a case of an ideal filter, IIR filter implementations and spatiotemporal FIR of first and second order have been proposed. The proposed filter stability parameters have been studied and possible to envisage an effective physical implementation

Full textThis thesis deals with the development of surface acoustic wave devices (SAW) for filtering applications in the VHF and UHF bands. Several filter structures are studied. The first ones are longitudinally coupled resonator filters (LCRF) manufactured on Quartz with a relative pass-band narrower than 0,1 % centered at about 1 GHz. These filters have been fabricated and characterized, yielding less than 5 dB insertion loss with rejection levels in excess of 20 dB as predicted by our P-matrix model. One of these filters has been mounted in an oscillator to validate its characteristics.To improve the design of such filters, we have developed a model accounting for transverse mode contributions on their spectral function. Comparisons between theory and experiment emphasizes the accuracy of the developed model. We also have investigated impedance element and slanted transducers (fan-shaped) filter structures to produce filters with relative pass-band ranging from 1 to 15 % in the 100 − 300 MHz frequency range. For each type of filters, we have developed a model to predict their electrical response. A balanced-bridge filter configuration with a 2 % relative pass-band and four fan-shaped filters with pass-band larger than 10 % have been fabricated and characterized. Finally, we have studied two approaches for the development of SAW devices operating at frequencies in the vicinity of 3 GHz. The first approach exploits Diamond-based substrates, providing phase velocity higher than 5 km.s−1. The second one uses a nano-imprint lithography process to reduce the pitch of electrode gratings

For a search-and-track system, detection of point targets in clutter is a challenge because spatial noise in an image can be much greater than temporal noise. Suppression of clutter uses a spatial filter matched to the target size. The goal of filtering is to reduce the spatial noise to the temporal noise limit. In this thesis, the detection performances of the Laplacian, Median, Robinson and Mexican Hat spatial filters were compared to determine the best filter and unveil trends in the dataset. The sky images were collected on top of the Lincoln Laboratory roof in Lexington, Massachusetts with a visible imager (1024x1024 pixels, 170 and 15prad resolution) over three months, seven times a day, fifty frames each time. Artificial targets of a range of intensities near the temporal noise limit were embedded throughout the entirety of the images to be filtered. After filtering, the performance of the filters was calculated using the Neyman-Pearson Detection method that was implemented with MATLAB. The Laplacian filter was found to be the best performing filter over the entire dataset with the other three filters performing almost as well, only averaging 5 percent to 9 percent worse than the leading filter. Trends in the dataset show that performance is also dependent on time of the day (e.g. morning, midday, after sunset), spatial standard deviation, temporal standard deviation and on resolution of the images (1024x1024, 512x512, 256x256). The conclusions of this thesis give a comparison of spatial filters and a deeper understanding of the dependence of the filter performance over a range of variables which can be later used to improve a detection scheme for point detection in search-and-track systems.

Full textNew concepts in nanophonotonics and progress in microelectronic fabrication processes should lead to a new generation of optical components. The goal of this thesis is to propose such innovative optical filters for space application for 0. 85 µm wavelengths in order to overstep the usual filters limitations, particularly in term of bandwidth, polarization sensibility, oblique incidence and tunability. This PhD project is about conception, fabrication and characterization of resonant grating filters, composed by a dielectric multilayer and a bi-dimensional nanostructuration on the top. From the electromagnetic modeling of the devices, a conception methodology is developed leading to the parameters of the photonic lattice. A fabrication process including steps of thin film deposition, e-beam lithography and dry etching is developed. Thickness of the deposited layers and lattice parameters are controlled within nanometer precision. The optical characterization of the fabricated devices demonstrates state of art performances for normal incidence (bandwidth of 0. 4 nm, reflexion higher than 55%. . . ) and for oblique incidence at ~60° (bandwidth <0. 8 nm, polarization independence, tunability. . . ). These results fit well with the performances predicted by the theoretical studies. The generic aspect of the realization process and the achieved performances show that these components are good candidates to replace conventional multi-layer filters. Moreover, their fabrication processes compatibility with those from microelectronics opens the way to further integration of these filters on chips with other advanced functions, leading to new complex optical devices

Full textThe matriochka resonator is based on reentrant coaxial Stepped Impedance Resonator (SIR). So, the thesis develops theoretical innovations on the matriochka technology offering accurate analytical models on the frequency and the quality factor behaviors of the resonator. The models prove the existence of degrees of freedom within the matriochka resonator which allows to get different form factors of the resonator. The degrees of freedom create many configurations of the matriochka resonator for a fundamental frequency and a quality factor. Consequently, a volume optimization is realized to design a L-band filter and a C-band filter. A multipactor study is also carried out for the L-band filter. So, a joint optimization method of the multipactor and the volume minimization is proposed for this filter. Thus, the models and optimisations are used in the order to to design and fabricate the microwave filters. The first one is a transmission L-band filter for the navigation application Galileo which offers a volume alternative and a high power in the vaccum. Then, the second one is a reception C-band filter for the telemetry application which offers wide spurious free-performance and a low volume compared to the state of the art. Finally, for a frequency and a quality factor and depending on the configurations, the matriochka technology offers an alternative of the resonator volume, and it offers a wide spurious free- performance and a low volume compared to the state of the art

The inverse problem for magnetoencephalography (MEG) involves estimating the magnitude and location of sources inside the brain that give rise to the magnetic field recorded on the scalp as subjects execute cognitive, motor and/or sensory tasks. Given a forward model which describes how the signals emanate from the brain sources, a standard approach for estimating the MEG sources from scalp measurements is to use regularized least squares approaches such as LORETA, MNE, VARETA. These regularization methods impose a spatial constraint on the MEG inverse solution yet, they do not consider the temporal dynamics inherent to the biophysics of the problem. To address these issues, we present a state-space formulation of the MEG inverse problem by specifying a state equation that describes temporal dynamics of the MEG sources. Using a standard forward model system as the observation equation, we derive spatio-temporal Kalman filter and fixed-interval smoothing algorithms for MEG source localization.To compare the methods analytically, we present a Bayesian derivation of the regularized least squares and Kalman filtering methods. This analysis reveals that the estimates computed from the static methods bias the location of the sources toward zero. We compare the static, Kalman filter and fixed-interval smoothing methods in a simulated study of MEG data designed to emulate somatosensory MEG sources with different signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) and mean offsets. The data were mixtures of sinusoids with SNR ranging from 1 to 10 and mean offset ranging from 0 to 20. With both decrease in SNR and increase in mean offset, the Kalman filter and the fixed interval smoothing methods gave uniformly more accurate estimates of source locations in terms of mean square error. Because the fixed interval smoothing estimates were based on all recorded measurements, they had uniformly lower mean-squared errors than the Kalman estimates. These results suggest that state-space models can offer a more accurate approach to localizing brain sources from MEG recordings and that this approach may enhance appreciably the use of MEG as a non-invasive tool for studying brain function.

Full textThis work shows a theoretical analysis together with numerical and experimental results of transmission characteristics from the microstrip bandpass filters with different geometries. These filters are built over isotropic dielectric substrates. The numerical analysis is made by specifical commercial softwares, like Ansoft Designer and Agilent Advanced Design System (ADS). In addition to these tools, a Matlab Script was built to analyze the filters through the Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) method. The filters project focused the development of the first stage of filtering in the ITASAT s Transponder receptor, and its integration with the others systems. Some microstrip filters architectures have been studied, aiming the viability of implementation and suitable practical application for the purposes of the ITASAT Project due to its lowspace occupation in the lower UHF frequencies. The ITASAT project is a Universityexperimental project which will build a satellite to integrate the Brazilian Data Collect System s satellite constellation, with efforts of many Brazilian institutes, like for example AEB (Brazilian Spatial Agency), ITA (Technological Institute of Aeronautics), INPE/CRN (National Institute of Spatial Researches/Northeastern Regional Center) and UFRN (Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte). Comparisons were made between numerical and experimental results of all filters, where good agreements could be noticed, reaching the most of the objectives. Also, post-work improvements were suggested.

Full textAn artificial system can use qualitative spatial reasoning to obtain information about its tridimensional environment, from bi-dimensional images. Inferences produced by qualitative spatial reasoning must be able to deal with uncertainty. This work investigates the use of probabilistic techniques to make qualitative spatial reasoning more robust against uncertainty, and better applicable to mobile agents in real environments. The work investigates a formalization of spatial reasoning using probabilistic description logics in a traffic domain. Additionally, a method is presented that combines qualitative spatial reasoning with a Bayesian filter, to develop two systems that are applied to self-localization of mobile robots. Two experiments are described; one using the theory of perceptual qualitative relations about shadows; the other using occlusion calculus and direction calculus. Both systems are combined with a Bayesian filter producing positive results in situations where qualitative spatial reasoning alone cannot infer robot location. Experiments with real data show robustness to noise and partial information.

Full textLand surface temperature (LST) is one of the most important meteorologicalvariables giving access to water and energy budgets governing the Biosphere-Atmosphere continuum. To better monitor vegetation and energy states, we need hightemporal and spatial resolution measures of LST because its high variability in spaceand time.Despite the growing availability of Thermal Infra-Red (TIR) remote sensing LSTproducts, at different spatial and temporal resolutions, both high spatial resolution(HSR) and high temporal resolution (HTR) TIR data is still not possible because ofsatellite resolutions trade-off : the most frequent LST products being low spatial resolution(LSR) ones.It is therefore necessary to develop methods to estimate HSR/HTR LST from availableTIR LSR/HTR ones. This solution is known as "downscaling" and the presentthesis proposes a new approach for downscaling LST based on Data Assimilation (DA)methods. The basic idea is to constrain HSR/HTR LST dynamics, simulated by a dynamicalmodel, through the minimization of their respective aggregated LSTs discrepancytoward LSR observations, assuming that LST is homogeneous at the land cover typescale inside the LSR pixel.Our method uses a particle smoother DA method implemented in a land surfacemodel : SETHYS model (Suivie de l’Etat Hydrique de Sol). The proposed approach hasbeen firstly evaluated in a synthetic framework then validated using actual TIR LSTover a small area in South-East of France. Meteosat LST time series were downscaledfrom 5km to 90m and validated with ASTER HSR LST over one day. The encouragingresults conducted us to expand the study area and consider a larger assimilation periodof seven months. The downscaled Meteosat LSTs were quantitatively validated at1km of spatial resolution (SR) with MODIS data and qualitatively at 30m of SR withLandsat7 data. The results demonstrated good performances with downscaling errorsless than 2.5K at MODIS scale (1km of SR)
