Abstract
A method for selecting a mode of transmission for a first telecommunication entity of a communication signal to a second telecommunication entity, each mode determining a physical bitrate. The method includes: determining for a given mode a first metric corrected by a second metric, the first metric measuring at a given distance d a relative degradation by the medium for transmitting the signal resulting from a relative degradation linked to a multipath effect at the link level with respect to a Gaussian channel and from a relative degradation linked to an effect of attenuation of the medium with respect to a model of attenuation in free space, the second metric determining a ratio between a mean bitrate and the physical bitrate for this mode of transmission; comparing for various modes of transmission, values of the first metric corrected to select at least one mode of transmission for distance d.
