The invention concerns a method for routing a communication between a first terminal which is mobile (5) and a second terminal (4) in a global telecommunication network, the communication capable of being routed in the global network (a) at least partially via a satellite telecommunication network (1) using base stations with access to the satellites (2, 3), and (b) at least partially via an earth telecommunication network (PSTN) connected to said base stations (2, 3), each satellite (1) of the satellite communication network defining a total coverage covering a plurality of base stations, the total coverage defining a plurality of sub-coverage areas each associated with one respective base station (2,3). The method is characterised in that it comprises a step of updating the location of the first terminal (5) in a sub-coverage area associated with said plurality of base stations (2, 3) closest to said second terminal, so as to minimise the distance for routing said communication via said earth telecommunication network (PSTN).

La présente invention concerne un procédé d'acheminement d'une communication entre un premier terminal qui est mobile (5) et un second terminal (4) dans un réseau global de télécommunications, la communication pouvant être acheminée dans le réseau global: (a) au moins en partie à travers un réseau de télécommunications par satellite (1) utilisant des stations de base d'accès aux satellites (2, 3), et (b) au moins en partie à travers un réseau de télécommunications terrestre (PSTN) connecté à ces stations de base (2, 3), chaque satellite (1) du réseau de télécommunications par satellite définissant une couverture totale couvrant une pluralité de stations de base, la couverture totale définissant une pluralité de sous-couvertures chacune associée à l'une respective des stations de base (2, 3). Le procédé est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend une étape de mise à jour de localisation du premier terminal (5) dans une sous-couverture associée à celle de ladite pluralité de stations de base (2, 3) qui est la plus proche dudit second terminal, de sorte à minimiser la distance d'acheminement de ladite communication à travers ledit réseau de télécommunications terrestre (PSTN).
