Data sending method, entry gateway and communication station, as well as data receiving method, exit gateway and vehicle comprising same

A method for receiving with at least one receiver an internet data packet from at least one sender via a data exit gateway connected to an ICN infrastructure, wherein the at least one receiver is configured as a data client in an end-to-end communication environment, the method comprising the steps of

• creating a data image of at least as part of an identification map containing data name strings for identifying respective data payloads transported in internet data packets potentially requested by the at least one receiver, and containing identification sequences for identifying the internet data packets;
• verifying a reachability of at least one sender of the internet data packets;
• passing a data interest packet indicating a data request by the at least one receiver to a forwarding module in order to be forwarded to an ICN entry module;
• receiving with an ICN exit module of the data exit gateway an ICN data packet corresponding to the data interest packet and encapsulating an internet data packet;
• consulting the data image of the identification map for finding a name string identifying the data payload and the respective identification sequence of the internet data packet;
• mapping the internet data packet into an IP address of the at least one receiver based on the identification sequence;
• extracting the internet data packet from the received ICN data packet;
• and
• sending the internet data packet to the at least one receiver having the mapped IP address.
