Abstract

A method is described for assigning payload data from a bus data packet to different sensor transmission devices, a bus control device being connected to a data bus of a vehicle designed for the simultaneous transmission of bus data packets (100) between multiple sensor transmission devices and the bus control device. The bus data packets include at least one signaling field and a payload data field having at least two payload data blocks. The method includes a step of reading in a bus data packet and a step of determining an assignment rule based on an action list. The action list includes multiple combinations in each case of one of multiple possible operating states for each sensor transmission device which uses the data bus.
