Chaque signal partiel (Sel1 à Seln) est converti en un signal partiel optique (Sopt1 à Soptn) présentant respectivement une longueur d'onde moyenne différente (μ1 à μn) ou présentant une fréquence porteuse optique et/ou une polarisation orthogonale différente. Les signaux partiels optiques (Sopt1 à Soptn) sont transmis sur un guide d'ondes lumineuses formant la ligne de transmission (7), et les signaux partiels optiques (Sopt1 à Soptn) sont détectés de nouveau séparément à l'extrémité de la ligne de transmission (7) puis sont réunis pour former le signal d'information (Sel) à transmettre. L'invention concerne en outre une unité émettrice et une unité réceptrice ainsi qu'un système global de mise en oeuvre dudit procédé.
