Abstract :
This paper introduces an Integrated Sensor Information System (ISIS) and outlines the study and use of Radio Frequency propagation and power distribution internally from a bus to an external receiver. A study on scaled model of a single decked bus, examining the effect of antenna placement and internal structures within the bus on the propagation and power distribution of an omni-directional source is performed. Measurements on the scaled bus model was performed in a fully automated near field scanner and the results are discussed.
