Assignee: ORANGE
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 18:
19. The communication system of claim 18, wherein the first access device is able to manage a transmission of sequences of data symbols of predetermined duration by the terminal having a dual connectivity established with the first device for accessing a telecommunications network and with a second access device for accessing a telecommunications network, the terminal being configured to transmit, during the dual connectivity, sequences of data symbols on a first uplink channel towards the first access device and on a second uplink channel towards the second access device during disjoint time intervals, the first access device comprising a processor, the first access device configured to:
obtain the estimate of a deviation between propagation delays between the terminal and the first access device and between the terminal and the second access device; and
configure the terminal so that it introduces the at least one guard interval during each transmission of at least one sequence of data symbols on the first uplink channel towards the first access device, during which no data symbol is transmitted by the terminal on the first uplink channel, the at least one guard interval being introduced by the terminal at the start of a first sequence of data symbols and/or at the end a last sequence of data symbols transmitted during the transmission on the first uplink channel, and occupying a number of symbols determined based on the estimate of the deviation between the propagation delays.
