ABSTRACT:
During a communication, a channel is shared by several transmitting/receiving stations comprising a single master station and one or more slave stations. A station becomes a master station by transmitting traffic information on the channel. After the master station has stopped transmitting traffic information without the communication being concluded, it continues to transmit signaling information authorizing each slave station in turn to transmit traffic information on the channel. This transmission of signaling information continues for as long as the communication lasts, until one of the slave stations becomes the master station in turn by beginning to transmit traffic information on the channel or until the same station begins to transmit traffic information again, hereby remaining the master station.
