Abstract: An information transmission system for at least one commercial vehicle includes at least one information sending module, at least one repeating module and at least one receiving module. The information sending module is configured and arranged to send signals defining a message to the repeating module. The repeating module is configured and arranged to enhance the signals and forward the signals to the receiving module. A commercial vehicle and a commercial vehicle combination utilize the information transmission system.

Abstract: A system for establishing an intervehicle communication for at least first and second commercial vehicles includes at least one wireless, wired, and/or physical communication line, wherein the communication line is bidirectional. At one point of the communication line, a first authentication code generation module is provided, which is dedicated to the first vehicle. At another point of the communication line, a second code processing module is provided, which is dedicated to the second vehicle. The first authentication code generation module is configured to send identification information, authentication information, and/or encryption keys. The second code processing module is configured to process and send back identification information, authentication information, and/or encryption keys, especially processed and/or modified identification information, authentication information, encryption keys.

Abstract: A system for establishing an intervehicle communication for at least a first and a second commercial vehicle includes several wireless and/or wired communication lines, at least one message sending module and at least one message receiving module. The message sending module is configured and arranged to send the at least one message over one or more lines. The message receiving module is configured to receive the message over one or more lines.

Abstract: An apparatus for synchronizing end nodes in a vehicle has an emitter for emitting a synchronization signal to the end nodes and a receiver for receiving one or more response signals from the end nodes. The synchronization signal is adapted to address a subset or all of the end nodes to enable a synchronized action of the addressed end nodes and/or to trigger a generation of one or more response signals in response to the received synchronization signal.
