Abstract
The invention relates to a method implemented by a communicating entity in a packet-switched network, comprising at least one port for transmitting communication signal frames comprising a first type of frames, intended to be transmitted in a plurality of streams for which a traffic shaping is defined, and a second type of frames, for which no traffic shaping is defined, each frame being able to be fragmented so as to transmit a fragment only of a frame of said second type. The communicating entity stores a plurality of first queues of frames of the first type, the first queues being associated respectively to said plurality of streams, and at least one second queue for frames of the second type. The entity further schedules transmissions of first type frames, and between at least two first type frames, transmission of at least a fragment of at least one second type frame.
