Elle consiste à introduire la commutation par paquets. Au lieu d'envoyer des données à l'aide de circuits dédiées, un système par commutation de paquets divise l'information en paquets susceptibles d'être transmis par n'importe lequel des canaux disponibles. 5, record 1, French, - service%20g%C3%A9n%C3%A9ral%20de%20paquets%20radio
