Nous obtenons une estimation gaussienne supérieure des probabilités de transition d'une marche aléatoire hétérogène dans le quadrant positif. Les ingrédients essentiels de notre preuve sont des arguments de comparaison basés sur des variantes discrètes du principe de Harnack et des estimations du type grandes déviations.

We obtain upper Gaussian estimates of transition probabilities of inhomogeneous random walks on the positive quadrant. Among the most important steps in our proof are comparison arguments based on discrete variants of the Harnack principle and large deviations estimates.
