Method for recognizing errors in a communication system

A method for recognizing errors in a communication system in the form of a LIN bus system, the method comprising the following steps:

• initiating a transmission of at least one data packet by a primary appliance of the communication system to at least one secondary appliance of the communication system;
• receiving at least one status message from a transmitter-receiver of the communication system;
• evaluating the at least one received status message with regard to an error upon receipt of a response data packet in response to the at least one transmitted data packet;
• recognizing an error based on the evaluation.

A communication system in the form of a LIN bus system, comprising:

• a primary appliance;
• at least one secondary appliance;
• and
• a device configured to recognize errors in the communication system, wherein the device comprises:
• an initiating arrangement configured to initiate a transmission of at least one data packet by the primary appliance to the at least one secondary appliance,
• a receiving arrangement configured to receive at least one status message from a transmitter-receiver of the communication system,
• an evaluation arrangement configured to evaluate the at least one received status message with regard to an error upon receipt of a response data packet in response to the at least one transmitted data packet, and
• a recognition arrangement configured to recognize an error based on the evaluation.

A device for data processing, the device configured to recognize errors in a communication system in the form of a LIN bus system, the device configured to:

• initiate a transmission of at least one data packet by a primary appliance of the communication system to at least one secondary appliance of the communication system;
• receive at least one status message from a transmitter-receiver of the communication system;
• evaluate the at least one received status message with regard to an error upon receipt of a response data packet in response to the at least one transmitted data packet;
• recognize an error based on the evaluation.

Anon-transitory computer-readable storage medium on which are stored commands for recognizing errors in a communication system in the form of a LIN bus system, the commands, when executed by a computer, causing the computer to perform the following steps:

• initiating a transmission of at least one data packet by a primary appliance of the communication system to at least one secondary appliance of the communication system;
• receiving at least one status message from a transmitter-receiver of the communication system;
• evaluating the at least one received status message with regard to an error upon receipt of a response data packet in response to the at least one transmitted data packet;
• recognizing an error based on the evaluation.
