Patent ID: 7519131

Claim:
A method for transmitting a multiplicity of bit sequences to be transmitted via a plurality of lines in which the bits of each bit-sequence are distributed across the plurality of lines and transmitted at the same instant, the method comprising: determining at least one first bit-sequence combination with an increased bit-error probability when transmitted due to crosstalk between the lines across which the bit-sequence is distributed from the multiplicity of bit sequences to be transmitted; converting, by using a mapping table, the first bit sequence combination into a second bit-sequence combination with a lower bit error probability; generation of a separate conversion bit for each second bit-sequence combination that indicates that the second bit-sequence combination represents the converted first bit-sequence combination; and transmitting the multiplicity of bit sequences having a second bit-sequence combination instead of the corresponding first bit-sequence combination, wherein the bits of the second bit-sequence combination are distributed across the plurality of lines and transmitted at the same instant and transmitting each associated conversion bit.
