and the starter module is suitable to, following this consultation, look for the said information and send by the said simplified radio link, a response giving this information. -
21. Radiocommunication system according to claim 16, in which the starter module is suitable to send the base an integrity check information of the update downloaded, the base being suitable to control a download of the said update to the radiocommunication device again if the said integrity check information reveals an integrity fault.
-
22. Radiocommunication system according to claim 21, in which the said integrity check information is a signature calculated from the said update stored in the memory of the radiocommunication device, the base being suitable to determine whether this signature reveals an integrity fault and to then trigger a new download of the update by the said simplified radio link.
-
23. Radiocommunication system according to claim 16, in which the starter module has a normal operation mode driving an execution of the use module and a download mode enabling the download of an update of the use module and not driving the immediate execution of the use module, the base being suitable to send the starter module by the said simplified radio link, an instruction for switching to normal operation mode.
-
24. Radiocommunication system according to claim 15, in which the base is an access point to an external network.
