A method is described for assigning payload data from a bus data packet to different sensor transmission devices, a bus control device being connected to a data bus of a vehicle designed for the simultaneous transmission of bus data packets () between multiple sensor transmission devices and the bus control device. The bus data packets include at least one signaling field and a payload data field having at least two payload data blocks. The method includes a step of reading in a bus data packet and a step of determining an assignment rule based on an action list. The action list includes multiple combinations in each case of one of multiple possible operating states for each sensor transmission device which uses the data bus.

Sensor transmission device and method for transmitting payload data from multiple sensors to a bus control device for a vehicle

A method for operating a bus system, which includes a master and k slaves as users, where a header of an interrogation frame, which includes k information fields, is transmitted by the master to the slaves; in each instance, an mth slave being assigned an mth information field; an information item regarding the amount of data that is to be sent by the mth slave to the master being written by the mth slave to the mth information field assigned to it; the interrogation frame being transmitted to the master; and a time schedule, by which the amount of data to be sent is taken into account, being prepared by the master for transmitting the data.
