A bus station for connection to a bus in a motor vehicle, including a basic module as well as expansion modules. The basic station can access the expansion and basic modules of other bus stations via the bus for a called-up service. This enables configuration of infotainment systems in motor vehicles according to a modular design.

Bus station in a vehicle

A computer for data processing and a method for data processing using a computer, each of which is used for reversing, with the aid of a circuit arrangement, the bit sequence of the information, which was coded with a reversible Huffman code, when an error occurs, so that the computer decodes the reversed bit sequences using a suitable code table. In the computer, a data buffer is connected to a register in such a way that the bit sequence is reversed when transferred from the data buffer to the register. The bit sequence is not reversed when it is retransferred from the register into the data buffer. In this way, information which is located after the error does not get lost. Since to reverse the bit sequence, the end of the bit sequence, designated by a synchronization bit sequence, must be found, the synchronization bit sequence is disposed at byte boundaries due to padding bits. In this way, synchronization bit sequences are located only at byte boundaries. Since the computer must load code tables for the decoding, various reversible and non-reversible codes can be used. The computer recognizes the beginning of a group of coded information on the basis of the synchronization bit sequence.
