Abstract

The incessant increment of the population and lack of the reliable bus position notification system in big cities is causing the boost of the private owned cars, has reasoned traffic congestion problems. A reliable public transport notification system for passengers is able to resolve the issue stated above. First ever time, Response Surface Methodology (RSM) is adopted in this study to presents a new real time intelligent buses notification system using routes’ coordinates optimization and wireless mesh network emerged in an embedded design. The von Mises and displacement equation is obtained through RSM and trained to the dedicated controller unit. A mature experimental setup is designed to analyze the equation validation. The result from statistical and experimental analysis using RSM implies that the target to optimize a single route coordinates into one digit representing bus stop number is achieved by ~98%. The outcomes of research as location data minimizing and transmission time reduction have a promised potential to a better and reliable public transport notification system using route’s coordinates optimization.
