Abstract

La présente invention se rapporte à un récepteur de radiodiffusion qui comprend : un syntoniseur principal (3a), qui reçoit des ondes radio et qui est configuré séquentiellement de façon à accorder des fréquences dans une plage de fréquences pour laquelle une recherche doit être exécutée; un syntoniseur secondaire (3b), qui reçoit des ondes radio et qui est configuré séquentiellement de façon à accorder des fréquences qui sont décalées chacune par rapport à une fréquence de syntonisation respective définie pour le syntoniseur principal (3a) par la différence de fréquence Δf entre une fréquence centrale et l'une quelconque des bandes de fréquences qui sont symétriquement adjacentes à la fréquence centrale; un module de détermination d'état d'ondes radio (11), qui détermine si la différence du niveau d'intensité du champ électrique des ondes radio reçues par les syntoniseurs (3a, 3b) est une valeur prédéterminée, ou non; et un module de commande de recherche (15), qui détermine la fréquence de la station de radiodiffusion à partir des fréquences des ondes radio reçues par les syntoniseurs (3a, 3b), sur la base des résultats de la détermination exécutée par le module de détermination d'état d'ondes radio (11).
