Abstract:
In a mesh network using a TDMA protocol: determination is made of a first set of antenna angles to be used by a receiving antenna of a recipient node to capture data respectively sent by a plurality of sending nodes; reception is made of data sent by the sending nodes using the respective antenna angle of the first set; at least one correlation operation is made between the various redundant copies of the same item of data, received by the recipient node; at least one copy not necessary for the decoding of the received data is deduced determination is made of at least one time slot during which the copy not necessary for the decoding is received; and during that time slot, the antenna angle used by the receiving antenna to receive data sent by the sending node allocated to that time slot is updated.
