DEVICE FOR ALLOCATING A COMMUNICATION NETWORK SHARED RESOURCES, BY ASSIGNING TIME SLOTS OF A DYNAMICALLY ADAPTABLE TIME/FREQUENCY PLANE

摘要

The invention concerns a device (D) for allocating shared resources on a return channel between two terminals (UE) and a communication management equipment (GW) of a communication network. It comprises processing means (MT) for determining a set of time/frequency planes based on at least one symbol rate capability required for a set of user terminals (UE) and designating a selected set of frames, each defined by a selected set of time slots of a common type, for its transmission to each of the user terminals (UE) of the set and, each time a user terminal (UE) requires at least one capability, for determining at least one adapted symbol rate taking into account said required capability and a corresponding time slot, called optimal relative to the time of determination, among the determined time/frequency planes, so as to optimize allocation of the network shared resources.
