Abstract

The invention relates to a transmission control method implemented by a station having at least one data frame to be transmitted via a wireless telecommunication network. In one aspect, the method comprises, at each selection round from a maximum number of selection rounds: a step of obtaining a value representative of either an authorization to transmit the frame, or of a prohibition to transmit the frame; and, when the value is representative of an authorization for transmission, transmitting an information signal in the network so as to indicate, to the other stations, that the station has obtained a value representative of an authorization for transmission. The transmission of the information signal is at least partially carried out during the transmission of a data frame in the network.
