Method for providing a program module in a communications system
First Claim
1. A method for providing a program module (SP) in a communications system, in which the program module (SP) is made available by a server (S), the program module (SP) is transmitted to a subscriber terminal (UEa, UEc), a checking criterion (CSa) is in each case calculated in a security device (TC, SB, AC) and in the subscriber terminal (UEa, UEc) by means of the program module (SP) and an individual key (PKa, PKc) of the subscriber terminal (UEa, UEc) or of a corresponding subscriber, the individual key (PKa, PKc) in the security device (TC, SB, AC) and in the subscriber terminal (UEa, UEc) is identical, and the checking criteria (CSa, CSc) are compared in order to determine whether the program module (SP) has been received with errors by the subscriber terminal (UEa, UEc).

Abstract
A method provides a program module in a communications system. The program module is accommodated by a server, the program module is transmitted to a subscriber terminal, a test criterion is calculated each time inside a security device and in the subscriber terminal by using the program module and an individual key. By comparing the test criterion, it is determined whether the program module has been defectively received by the subscriber terminal.

11. A communications system having a server (S), having a security device (TC, SB, AC) and having a subscriber terminal, in which
the server (S) is designed such that it makes a program module (SP) available, a device is designed such that it transmits the program module (SP) to the subscriber terminal (UEa, UEc), the security device (TC, SB, AC) and the subscriber terminal (UEa, UEc) are designed such that they use the program module (SP) and an individual key (PKa, PKc) of the subscriber terminal (UEa, UEc) or of a corresponding subscriber to in each case calculate a checking criterion (CSa), with the individual key (PKa, PKc) in the security device (TC, SB, AC) and in the subscriber terminal (UEa, UEc) being identical, and a central device (NE) being designed such that it uses a comparison of the checking criteria (CSa, CSc) to determine whether the program module (SP) has been received with errors by the subscriber terminal (UEa, UEc).
