Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif pour transmettre un message à un groupe d'abonnés dans un réseau de télécommunication à l'intérieur d'une zone géographique délimitée, ce message étant envoyé par un abonné à l'intérieur de ladite zone géographique. A cet effet, l'abonné qui envoie le message n'a pas besoin d'informations concernant le lieu où il se trouve.
