Abstract
A method for configuring communication parameters for a first gateway of a LoRa network, designated by a server of said network to relay a response to a request, containing data, received by the server, the data originating from a terminal of said network, the response being transmitted by the server and intended for the terminal. The method comprises, when it is implemented by the first gateway: acquiring communication parameters; and, configuring the first gateway so as to transmit the response to the terminal using said parameters; said parameters being acquired by a determination procedure determining (52, 53, 54), when a distance between the first gateway and a second gateway is shorter than a threshold, communication parameters that make it possible to ensure reliable transmission from the first gateway to the terminal and to minimize disturbance, by said transmission, of communications from the second gateway.
