Abstract In recent years, several kinds of wireless network have been widely deployed. In this work, we focus on the e-bus-system for movements of buses. Passengers can get the bus information through the intelligent bus stop when they are waiting for the bus. In today’s environment of Taiwan, the transportation information is provided through some specific Mobile network operators. In this case, it costs a huge expenditure every month for the charge of data transmission. Therefore, we propose a new network system with Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) and Super Wi-Fi to replace the mobile network operator. Furthermore, when the catastrophe happened, the proposed system can also change to be used for the rescues. The implementation of the system architecture, the application of DMR and super WiFi in the proposed system, and the operation scenario are described in this paper. Keywords Digital mobile radio

Introduction In the recent years, many public and private organizations, such as police forces, fire brigades and health emergency associations [1], have built their own trunking or simulcast digital radio solutions to replace the old analog radio networks. In this paper we focus on the application of communication techniques in e-bus-system. If the bus stop provides the bus information, passengers can grasp it immediately, and can appropriately adjust the schedule. In Taiwan, in order to enhance the service performance of the bus transport system, Ministry of transportation and communications (MOTC) has developed Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) [2] plan. The combination of electronics, communications, information and the management of transportation technology have strengthened the supervision and management of the bus. Thereby, the proposed plan is to attract people to take the bus and, therefore, to increase the usage of public transportation. Its main objectives are to save the energy consumed by the transportation and to avoid the traffic congestion. The e-bus-system in Taiwan is used to transmitting the information through some specific Mobile networks. In this case, it needs to pay a lot of monthly expenditure for data transmission. And it always introduces burden to the government and the bus companies. In paper [3], it compared some common professional mobile radio (PMR) standa
