Abstract

A method for managing a transmission of sequences of symbols of predetermined duration by means of a terminal having dual connectivity with a first device for accessing a network and with a second device for accessing a network is described, the terminal being configured to transmit, when dual-connected, sequences of symbols over a first uplink to the first access device and over a second uplink to the second access device during disjoint time intervals. The method includes obtaining an estimate of a difference between delays in propagation between the terminal and the first and second access devices, and configuring the terminal to introduce at least one guard interval in each transmission of at least one sequence of symbols over the first uplink, during which no data symbol is transmitted by the terminal over the first uplink, the at least one guard interval being introduced by the terminal at the start of a first sequence of symbols and/or at the end of a last sequence of symbols transmitted in the transmission over the first uplink, and occupying a number of symbols determined according to the estimate of the difference between the propagation delays.
