Abstract

A method for managing communications in a wireless communications network comprising a set of pairs constituted by a sender device and a receiver device, each of the devices having a determined area of communications coverage, the coverage areas of each pair having a mutual intersection area. Such a method comprises the followings steps: determining future trajectories of a disturbing mobile obstacle as a function of a set of prior positions of the disturbing mobile obstacle, a position of an obstacle being determined as a function of areas of mutual overlapping of at least two disturbed intersecting areas, a disturbed intersecting area having a given state of disturbance according to a determined criterion of quality of communications between the devices of the pairs corresponding to the disturbed intersection area; establishing a forecast diagnostic of quality of communications by examining the determined future trajectory or trajectories; managing the routing of communications as a function of the established forecast diagnostic.
