Abstract

Le système de communication (100) de l'invention comprend des stations d'émission (110) et une station de réception (130). Chaque station d'émission (110) envoie un signal sans fil dans lequel une ressource de temps périodique est allouée à une série de signaux de synchronisation correspondant à des informations d'identification concernant cette station d'émission (110) et une ressource de temps correspondant à ladite série de signaux de synchronisation est allouée à un signal spécifique. La station de réception (130) détecte les signaux de synchronisation mentionnés ci-dessus dans le signal sans fil émis par une station d'émission (110) et, d'après la série de signaux de synchronisation détectée, identifie la ressource de temps allouée au signal spécifique mentionné ci-dessus. Puis, d'après la ressource de temps identifiée, la station de réception (130) détecte ledit signal spécifique dans le signal sans fil mentionné ci-dessus.
