Abstract: The invention relates in particular to a method of adjusting power spectral densities of a plurality of telecommunications lines sending data in a plurality of frequency sub-bands, a power spectral density being assigned to each sub band sending data. The method comprises the following steps: selecting at least one line, called the donor line, whose capacity for sending data is higher than a predetermined reference capacity, selecting at least one sub band of said donor line, and reducing the power spectral density assigned to the selected sub band to a predefined minimum power level in said sub band.

Abstract: A method of allocating a plurality of subbands to a plurality of streams of a multichannel link in a multicarrier modulation communications system, each stream being successively defined in a communications frame of said multichannel link by a number Mj of bits to be transmitted and a noise margin ?j. Each subband is associated with a normalized signal-to-noise ratio on the multichannel link. The subbands are classified in a specific order of the normalized signal-to-noise ratios. An energy Ei per subband is determined by a binary allocation algorithm. For each stream taken in the order of said frame, a number Nj of consecutive subbands taken in the order of normalized signal-to-noise ratios is allocated so that the sum of the numbers nij of bits in each subband allocated to each stream is equal to Mj where: M j = ? i = 1 N j ? n ij and nij=log2(1+El·(SNR0)i/?J).

Abstract: A method of allocating a plurality of subbands (SBi) to a plurality of streams (FLj) of a multichannel link in a multicarrier modulation communications system, each stream (FLj) being successively defined in a communications frame of said multichannel link by a number Mj of bits to be transmitted and a noise margin ?j. Each subband (SBi) is associated with a normalized signal-to-noise ratio (SNR0)i on the multichannel link.
