Abstract

See full text

An embodiment of the device comprises: three subtracters, three multipliers and a correction coefficient determination device. The subtracters and multipliers make it possible to obtain three signals, whose values are multiplied by a same coefficient, in order that they retain the same ratios as the values of the signals supplied to the input of the device. The device for determining a correction coefficient comprises means for determining which of the input signals has the highest instantaneous value at each time, in order to apply thereto a predetermined, non-linear transformation and for supplying a correction signal which is applied to the multipliers.
