Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
30 class hours (= 22.5 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 90 hours (equivalent to 3 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 67.5 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr. Horst Wieker
Lecturer: Prof. Dr. Horst Wieker

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will have developed an understanding of how information is generated and distributed within a vehicle.
Students will be able to name the advantages and disadvantages of bus systems, as well as the various fields of application
where bus systems are normally used.  
In addition, students will be able to list the data typically generated in modern vehicles and the connections between this data and assistance systems.  Students will be aware of the fundamental problems of automated driving and its connection with telematics systems.  
 
Students will be capable of demonstrating the basic motivation behind Cooperative Intelligent Transports Systems (C-ITS).  They will be able to
reconstruct the basic standardization use cases and explain how messages are structured using given scenarios.  Students will be capable of solving routing problems by calculating the best propagation path.  Lastly, they will be able to explain how information from vehicle bus systems is used in the context of automated driving.
