Abstract
A telecommunications network, especially an LTE type network, is adapted to a change in configuration. The telecommunications network includes at least a first transmission device, of base station or transmission relay type, and a second transmission device, of base station or transmission relay type. There is no radio link in existence between the first transmission device and the second transmission device before the change in configuration. The process for change includes: detecting a change in the configuration of the telecommunications network; allocating radio resources in the communications frames of the first communications element for determination of the transmission quality with the second communications element; and establishing a radio link between the first transmission device and the second transmission device if the determined transmission quality is advantageous. The process is implemented by a telecommunications networking infrastructure and by a transmission device.
