A transceiver having an associated address, comprising: a redundancy information calculation unit (110,115); a message assembly and reconstruction unit (130, 135) coupled with said redundancy information calculation unit (110,115); a transceiver unit coupled with the message assembly and reconstruction unit (130, 135) for transmitting and receiving packets, wherein the message assembly and reconstruction unit (130, 135) is configured for transmission: to assemble a packet by including control information and payload data, wherein the control information includes a destination address; to forward said assembled packet to the redundancy information calculation unit (110, 115) for calculating a redundancy information, to strip said destination address from said assembled packet and to add the redundancy information to the packet, to set a control bit in the packet indicating that no destination address is included in the packet; and to forward the packet to a transmission unit of the transceiver unit; and further configured for reception: to determine whether a destination address is included in control information of a received packet; if no destination address is included, to insert the associated address of the transceiver into the control information and to remove a received redundancy information from said packet; to forward said packet including said associated address to said redundancy calculation unit (110, 115) for calculating a receiver redundancy information; and to compare the receiver redundancy information and the received redundancy information and if true, to accept said packet and otherwise to discard said packet. a redundancy information calculation unit (110,115); a message assembly and reconstruction unit (130, 135) coupled with said redundancy information calculation unit (110,115); a transceiver unit coupled with the message assembly and reconstruction unit (130, 135) for transmitting and receiving packets, wherein the message assembly and reconstruction unit (130, 135) is configured for transmission: to assemble a packet by including control information and payload data, wherein the control information includes a destination address; to forward said assembled packet to the redundancy information calculation unit (110, 115) for calculating a redundancy information, to strip said destination address from said assembled packet and to add the redundancy information to the packet, to set a control bit in the packet indicating that no destination address is included in the packet; and to forward the packet to a transmission unit of the transceiver unit; to assemble a packet by including control information and payload data, wherein the control information includes a destination address; to forward said assembled packet to the redundancy information calculation unit (110, 115) for calculating a redundancy information, to strip said destination address from said assembled packet and to add the redundancy information to the packet, to set a control bit in the packet indicating that no destination address is included in the packet; and to forward the packet to a transmission unit of the transceiver unit; and further configured for reception: to determine whether a destination address is included in control information of a received packet; if no destination address is included, to insert the associated address of the transceiver into the control information and to remove a received redundancy information from said packet; to forward said packet including said associated address to said redundancy calculation unit (110, 115) for calculating a receiver redundancy information; and to compare the receiver redundancy information and the received redundancy information and if true, to accept said packet and otherwise to discard said packet. to determine whether a destination address is included in control information of a received packet; if no destination address is included, to insert the associated address of the transceiver into the control information and to remove a received redundancy information from said packet; to forward said packet including said associated address to said redundancy calculation unit (110, 115) for calculating a receiver redundancy information; and to compare the receiver redundancy information and the received redundancy information and if true, to accept said packet and otherwise to discard said packet.
