Abstract

A device for hierarchized access to a network for transmission of information by response in a communication frame, from stations connected to this network, including a counter (62) of bits transmitted on the network, connected to an input of a comparison block (63) for comparing the number of bits transmitted on the network with a characteristic value for the access ranking allocated to this station, the comparison block being connected to a transmission block (68) from the station in order to authorize the transmission of information on the network by this station when the number of bits transmitted on the network is at least equal to the characteristic value allocated to the station.
