Abstract

In a multiplex transmission system for vehicles, the right to access a bus is divided into a plurality of main time slots, and the individual time slots are subdivided into two subordinate time slots. In each individual main time slot, a communication node having comparatively heavy traffic is assigned to a first of the two subordinate time slots, and a communication node having comparatively light traffic is assigned to a second of the two subordinate time slots.
