A method is provided for transmitting a multi-carrier signal formed of a temporal succession of symbols comprised of a set of data elements. The method includes: calculating an interference affecting a set of at least two data elements which are to be protected and are spaced out two by two from no more than one time carrier and no more than one frequency carrier, the interference taking into account the value of the data elements to be protected and values of the data elements of a contour ring consisting of carriers immediately adjacent to data elements to be protected, and; determining at least one value to be attributed to at least one data element of the contour ring for reducing, upon reception, the calculated interference.
