Abstract:
1. A method of communication between at least one first communications terminal of a first communications network and at least one second communications terminal of a second communications network, said first and said second communications networks being of a different network type and being interconnected via an interface device, said method comprising: dynamically calculating a maximum bit rate value of data streams that can be in transit between the first and second networks taking account of bit rates observed in the first and second networks; processing a request for admission of a new data stream between the first and second terminals, said interface device being configured to execute said processing taking account of the result produced in said calculation step; and if, based on the dynamic calculation, at least one of said networks does not have resources available to execute the request, handing over said new data stream to a mobile communications network distinct from said first and second networks.
