The transmission of the information signal is at least partially carried out during the transmission of a data frame in the network. | 04-18-2013 |
20130223215 | METHOD AND A DEVICE FOR REGULATING TRANSMISSIONS IN A TELECOMMUNICATIONS NETWORK - A transmission regulation method which may be performed by a station having at least one data frame for transmitting over a telecommunications network is disclosed. In one aspect, the method comprises, during at least one selection round from a set of selection rounds, obtaining a value representative either of an authorization to transmit or a prohibition to transmit the frame. Furthermore, when the value is representative of an authorization to transmit, transmitting an information signal over a first communications channel of the network, to inform the other stations that the station has obtained a value representative of an authorization to transmit; or when the value is representative of a prohibition to transmit, listening for an information signal, if any, transmitted over the first communications channel of the network. The method listens to or transmits over a second communications channel of the network that is different from the first communications channel. | 08-29-2013 |
20150257172 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR REGULATING TRANSMISSION IN A TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORK - A method is provided for regulating transmission implemented by a station, having at least one packet to be transmitted via a communication network, and participating in at least one tournament composed of a succession of selection rounds. The method includes: obtaining by the station, for each selection round of a first tournament, a binary value assigned to the station, representative either of an authorization to transmit, or of a prohibition to transmit, transmitting, on completion of the first tournament, at least one packet by the station when the station determines, as a function of at least one of the binary values assigned to the station for the selection rounds of the first tournament, that the station is authorized to transmit. The at least one packet transmitted by the station includes data representative of the succession of binary values assigned to the station for the selection rounds. | 09-10-2015 |
