User station for a serial bus system, and method for communicating in a serial bus system

A user station for a serial bus system, comprising:

• a communication control device configured to control a communication of the user station with at least one other user station of the bus system;
• and
• a transceiver device configured to serially transmit a transmission signal, generated by the communication control device, onto a bus of the bus system, and configured to serially receive signals from the bus of the bus system;
• wherein the communication control device is configured to generate the transmission signal according to a frame and to insert a header check sum into the frame, only bits of a frame header that is situated in front of a data field provided for useful data in the frame being included in a computation of the header check sum, the communication control device being configured to insert dynamic stuff bits into the frame header in such a way that an inverse stuff bit is inserted into the bit stream of the frame after 5 identical bits in succession, and for computing the header check sum, the communication control device is configured to use at least one switching element of an electrical circuit which is settable to a predetermined starting value, a predetermined check sum polynomial being implemented by the switching element or the electrical circuit, the predetermined check sum polynomial being equal to x13+x12+x11+x8+x7+x6+x5+x2+x1+1.

A bus system, comprising:

• a bus;
• and
• at least two user stations that are connected to one another via the bus in such a way that they may communicate serially with one another, and of which at least one user station is a user station including:
• a communication control device configured to control a communication of the user station with at least one other user station of the bus system;
• and
• a transceiver device configured to serially transmit a transmission signal, generated by the communication control device, onto the bus of the bus system, and is configured to serially receive signals from the bus of the bus system;
• wherein the communication control device is configured to generate the transmission signal according to a frame and to insert a header check sum into the frame, only bits of a frame header that is situated in front of a data field provided for useful data in the frame being included in a computation of the header check sum, the communication control device being configured to insert dynamic stuff bits into the frame header in such a way that an inverse stuff bit is inserted into a bit stream of the frame after 5 identical bits in succession, and for computing the header check sum, the communication control device is configured to use a predetermined starting value and a predetermined check sum polynomial with which an intermediate result of the computation of the header check sum is not equal to a zero vector for a portion of the frame header in which the dynamic stuff bits are used.

A method for communicating in a serial bus system, the method being carried out using a user station of the bus system that includes a communication control device and a transceiver device, the method comprising the following steps:

• controlling, via the communication control device, a communication of the user station with at least one other user station of the bus system;
• transmitting, via the transceiver device, a transmission signal, generated by the communication control device, onto a bus of the bus system, the transceiver device also being configured to serially receive signals from the bus of the bus system;
• generating, via the communication control device, the transmission signal according to a frame, the communication control device inserting a header check sum into the frame, only bits of a frame header that is situated in front of a data field provided for useful data in the frame being included in a computation of the header check sum, the communication control device inserting dynamic stuff bits into the frame header in such a way that an inverse stuff bit is inserted into the bit stream of the frame after 5 identical bits in succession, and for computing the header check sum, the communication control device being configured to use a predetermined starting value and a predetermined check sum polynomial with which an intermediate result of the computation of the header check sum is not equal to a zero vector for a portion of the frame header in which the dynamic stuff bits are used.
