Abstract: The invention relates to the selection of at least one dynamic node, in a mobile network, as a candidate for relaying a data communication signal between a transmitting entity and a receiving entity of the network. In terms of the invention: at least one first area around at least one first entity among the transmitting and receiving entities is defined, beyond which a data communication signal is attenuated beyond a first predetermined threshold; and the selection of nodes as possible candidates for relaying the communication signal on the basis of the definition of the first area is limited.

Abstract: In a multicellular cooperative radio communications method, the terminals estimate and communicate to all the access points of a cooperating cluster of access points information on the transmission channels between them and each access point of the cluster. The access points include homologous processor for scheduling the servicing of the terminals and operating in accordance with a particular criterion common to all the access points. Finally, the servicing of the terminals is effected jointly by said access points, in an order determined by the processor, using transmission parameters on the basis of the information on the transmission channels transmitted by the terminals.
