Abstract
A method for transmitting data from a wheel unit arranged on a wheel of a vehicle to a central unit of the vehicle, involving: sending the data in the form of temporally spaced data transmissions from the wheel unit to the central unit, transmission times of the data transmissions being stipulated by the wheel unit according to a transmission algorithm; and receiving the data transmissions sent by the wheel unit via the central unit is disclosed. The method may further comprise: evaluating reception times at which each of the data transmissions are received by the central unit, according to an evaluation algorithm making allowance for the transmission algorithm; and rating the data transmissions on the basis of a result of the evaluation of the reception times. Further, a corresponding apparatus for data transmission in a vehicle is disclosed.
