  • DATA TRANSMISSION METHOD, DATA TRANSMISSION DEVICE, AND DATA TRANSMISSION SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20240056625
    Abstract: A data transmission method to transmit data contained in k independent data streams to k receivers with a data transmission device, wherein specific data stream identifiers are attached to the independent data streams and then multiplexed into I multiplexed data streams. The multiplexed data streams are then transmitted via I UARTs to k microcontrollers which demultiplex the multiplexed data streams and select one of the contained independent data streams via an allocation protocol. The allocation protocol is identical on all microcontrollers and utilizes the specific data stream identifiers to allocate the k independent data streams to exactly one of the k receivers. The microcontrollers then send their selected independent data stream to an allocated receiver.

  • Vehicle system, vehicle and method for operating such a vehicle system
    Patent number: 11550610
    Abstract: A vehicle system having: a hardware level, a first operating system, and a virtual machine integrated on the hardware level having a second operating system. A hypervisor operates the virtual machine such that the first and the second operating systems) are operated in parallel on the hardware. A first application is executed on the first operating system and a second application is executed on the second operating system. The first application has a higher safety standard than the second application. The second operating system is configured to be operated in suspend-to-RAM mode while the first operating system is switched off.
