The downloading of data from a server into one (Cn) of the portable communicating objects (CCN), such as chip cards or mobile terminals, over a radiocommunications network involves: a preprocessing of data (PRET) in the server into at least one data message intended for the communicating object; a sending (E) of the data message from the server to the communicating object; a reception (R) by the server of an acknowledgement of reception by the communicating object, and; a post-processing of data (POST) in the server contingent on the acknowledgement of reception. The pre-processings of data (P) and post-processings of data (P) concerning the communicating objects are respectively executed before and after sending the data message and receiving the acknowledgements of reception (P) concerning the communicating objects. The server communicates with the radiocommunications network only during the sending and receiving of messages.

Campaign for downloading data into portable communicating objects

The invention solves the problem of systematic image marking of portable communicating objects, such as smart cards or mobile terminals, involved in a campaign in a database connected to a downloading server, thereby releasing the server. Access to a communicating object targeted by the campaign is authorized for a single-unit operation while the server manages the preprocessing of data for the communicating object during the campaign. Access is inhibited for a single-unit operation concerning an object targeted by the campaign when access is requested while the server manages transmission of a data message to the communicating object during the campaign. Access is also prohibited while the server manages an acknowledgement transmitted by the communicating object and the post-processing of data concerning the communicating object.
