Excellence with passion
Department of Electronics, Optronics and Signal Processing - DEOS
At ISAE SUPAERO, the Department of Electronics, Optronics and Signal Processing (DEOS) develops skills in signal processing, information processing, and data analysis.
In both teaching and research, the DEOS focuses on the entire information processing chain. This includes sensor and instrument design, signal implementation and transmission, data analysis and using data in advanced aeronautics and space application frameworks.
The DEOS in short
Research groups
- Space Systems for Planetology & Applications (SSPA)
- Signals, Communications, Antennas, Navigation (SCAN)
- MIcroélectroniques Image Sensors (CIMI)
Research Areas
 |
Adaptatives antennas : design of smart antennas, combining micro-wave properties and signal processing , to adapt to harsh environments and extend the boundaries of performance. |
| GNSS hybrid navigation systems : design of multi-constellation receivers. Improving the performances of GNSS systems in harsh environments (urban canyons, challenging environments…) |  |
 |
Vision navigation systems : stereo visual odometry approaches and simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). Semantic analysis of scenes for collaborative cartography. |
| Space communication systems : the study of satellite link issues with propagation channel modeling, implementation of modulation and coding techniques, jamming interference mitigation approaches, |  |
 |
Image sensor design : Design of integrated matrix imagers. Microelectronic image sensors. APS sensor. |
| Geophysical exploration of the solar system : Experimental and physical modeling and development of payloads for space missions. The aim is to understand the internal structure and evolution of terrestrial planets. |  |
 |
Optoelectronics for payloads and aerospace communications : Characterization and modeling of photonic components, design of optoelectronic payloads for satellite-based high speed data transmission (>10Gbps), Creation of the ALBS (Wideband access by satellite) project-IRT-Saint-Exupéry. |

The DEOS is extensively involved in ISAE SUPAERO educational programs, both in the engineering program (DFI) and the Masters program (DFM). The following non-exhaustive list includes some of the courses overseen by the DEOS.
| Educational program | Year/Master | Course modules |
|---|---|---|
| DFI | 1st yr |
|
| DFI | 2nd yr |
|
| DFI | 3rd yr |
|
| DFM | Master Aerospace Engineering (MAE) |
|
| DFM | Master Embedded systems (EMS) |
|
Descriptions of these courses are available in the ISAE SUPAERO DFI/DFM program catalogue, which can be consulted on the following page: cursus ISAE-SUPAERO.
