Claim 6:
7. The method according to claim 1, further comprising at least one of:
generating, in the first data processing device, first error information from the first reconciled signal, preferably encrypting the first error information to encrypted first error information with the initial key, and further preferably transmitting the first error information or the encrypted first error information to the second data processing device;
generating, in the second data processing device, second error information from the reconciled signal, preferably encrypting the second error information to encrypted second error information with the initial key, and further preferably transmitting the second error information or the encrypted second error information to the first data processing device;
determining, in the first data processing device and the second data processing device, from the first error information and the second error information an error estimate of the first reconciled signal and the reconciled signal; and
discarding erroneous parts of the first reconciled signal and the reconciled signal employing the first error information and the second error information.
