Abstract: The invention relates to a bus system having a master and a group of slaves connected thereto via a bus and to a communication method for interchanging data between the master and slaves in such a bus system. At least one communication frequency is associated with each slave in the group. The master places transmission data at different communication frequencies onto the bus in transmission phases.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for transmitting digital data, in particular in automation technology, in which a digital code word (R) received via a channel is corrected and verified as to its validity by means of a channel decoder (7), and an invalid code word is rejected and optionally requested once again, while a valid code word (C?) is further processed. If a metric (8) is cumulatively used with an encoding process, the probability of remaining bit errors in the whole method can be significantly reduced, thus making it possible to use the method in automation technology.
