<p>A method for calibrating a threshold for selecting a transmission format, from a plurality of transmission formats, in order to exchange data packets over a radio-frequency propagation channel, referred to as the channel (L,1,L2,L3) between a transmitting device and a receiving device of a satellite telecommunications system, includes: calculating a calibration table for the threshold, which associates transmission statistics, representative of an amount of estimated errors for a plurality of data packets received by the receiving device, with a plurality of values of the instantaneous channel quality; and updating the threshold, which, according to the calibration table, is a value of the instantaneous channel quality enabling a predefined value of the transmission statistics to be provided. A threshold calibration module, which can be included in a terrestrial terminal (2), and/or a satellite (3), and/or, more generally, in a satellite telecommunications system, is also described.</p> |
