This invention relates to a method for improving
forward error correction of serial coding in
data transmission within a vehicle, and compared to the prior art, it offers the
advantage of always being able to deterministically control the physical behavior on the
transmission channel while reducing resource requirements. Accordingly, according to the proposed method, bit errors are minimized, and
transmission errors can be corrected efficiently, i.e., with minimal technical effort. Furthermore, the
encoder used is designed with a minimum number of gates, and
interleaving is implicitly provided in the proposed method, which is based on the fact that so-called burst errors can be corrected particularly favorably. This implicit
interleaving makes it possible to eliminate the buffer memory that was conventionally required for explicit
interleaving. In addition, the invention ensures that user data can be encoded favorably with respect to transmission along with correction
metadata. According to the invention, it can be guaranteed that not only user data but also correction data can be line-coded or line-encoded. The invention also relates to a
system device similarly designed to perform this method, and a
computer program product having control commands for performing this method.
