Abstract
A method is proposed for processing of data packets received by an upstream node and intended for transmission to a terminal by a downstream node. The upstream node includes a queue of non-priority data packets intended for the terminal. The method includes: obtaining a first piece of information representing a filling state of the above-mentioned queue over a predetermined period of observation; when the first piece of information obtained has a value indicating a filling level of the queue that is lower than or equal to a first predetermined non-zero low threshold, reducing a rate of departure from the queue; when the first piece of obtained information has a value indicating a filling level of the queue that is higher than a first predetermined high threshold higher than or equal to the first low threshold, increasing the rate of departure from the queue.
