Abstract
A communication method in an ad hoc network, including a coordinating mobile communication device, referred to as the coordinator device, and a plurality of subordinate mobile communication devices, referred to as subordinate devices, each communication device including a wireless communication module and a positioning module using a transmission of first pulses modulated in accordance with a first ultra-wide band modulation in order to determine information representing a position of said communication device. The method includes, when it is implemented by a communication device: obtaining data to be transmitted; checking a transmission capability of the wireless communication module; when the wireless communication module does not allow to transmit the data, using the positioning module to transmit said data in the form of second pulses orthogonal to the first pulses.
