Abstract

L'invention concerne une unité de nœud comportant un moteur de mise en file d'attente pour la diffusion groupée de données Ethernet, et un système d'antennes réparties la comportant. L'unité de nœud est une unité de nœud qui est reliée par ramification à une pluralité de sous-nœuds, et comporte: un module de commande d'accès au support (MAC); et un moteur de mise en file d'attente servant à interfacer des données Ethernet entre le module MAC et la pluralité de sous-nœuds reliés par ramification, le moteur de mise en file d'attente comportant un tampon servant à réaliser la diffusion groupée de données Ethernet reçues en provenance du module MAC vers la pluralité de sous-nœuds reliés par ramification, à transférer des données Ethernet reçues en provenance de la pluralité de sous-nœuds reliés par ramification vers le module MAC, à mettre en tampon des données Ethernet reçues en provenance de la pluralité de sous-nœuds reliés par ramification, et à délivrer les données Ethernet mises en tampon au module MAC.
