A method for supplying data which can be received by a vehicle in a vehicular ad-hoc network, in which the data is transmitted between subscribers to the vehicular ad-hoc network using a location-based communications protocol, involves: identifying a geographical location area of the vehicle; selecting a suitable communications protocol (for the identified location area; and receiving the data using the selected communications protocol in such a way that the received data is available to at least one network layer of the communications protocol.

Vehicle-to-X communication in the USA and Europe using a standard transmitter

A microcontroller which can be coupled to an execution unit. For the operation of the microcontroller, a program in the microcontroller generates a message as a function of input data and transmits said message to the execution unit. For the operation of the microcontroller, accompanying the message, a check code is generated as a function of the execution of the program and is transmitted to the execution unit. For the operation of the execution unit, a test determines whether the check code is logically predefined and/or received within a predetermined time interval, wherein in the case of a positive test result, the message is designated as valid, and in the case of a negative result, the message is designated as invalid.
