Abstract
A frame (T) is sub-divided into identical time slots (61, 62, . . . , 6N) of fixed duration, each of which is capable of containing at least one lowest data rate telephone channel. These time slots are assigned on demand so that a new call is spread over one or more bursts (81, 82, 83, 84) which are located in available ones of said time slots, or else in space which may be left available in time slots which are already partially occupied by other, low data rate calls.
