The report provides an overview of electronics and its application to buses and other transportation sectors. The report then addresses electronic integration, potential benefits offered by integration, and transit agency experiences with the technology. The report concludes with guidelines for implementing transit bus electronics. It is intended to be a primer on the subject, providing essential background information to serve as a starting point for acquiring additional knowledge.

In preparing this report, recent literature explaining 800 megahertz trunking was reviewed. The content of this literature was examined and this research project was prepared to show the deficiencies of VHF communications frequencies, as compared to the state of the art 800 megahertz enhanced trunking radio systems. This research project was prepared to help fire departments understand the necessity for change when upgrading their communications systems, and to present what appears to be a viable solution to the communication dilemma.

The Radio Communications Systems Subcommittee of the Technology Transfer Task Force submitted its final report on October 15, 1981. In this study of the City's existing radio communications systems, the committee became aware of an advanced radio technology known as "trunked radio systems". The subcommittee recommended that a new task force should be established to explore this concept further.

Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) has become the tool to design any type of public security systems, in particular due to the strongly increased security demands for mobile systems. In this book, the authors show how TETRA can be strongly improved and these improvements will most probably be part of future TETRA standards. The areas examined include channel assignment and multiple access techniques, video transmission, wireless LAN integration, and the establishment of multiple wireless mesh networks. Since the requirements for these networks is security, the authors show that innovative techniques such as those based on chaotic signals can be used in order to maximize security. The book is a vital reference point for researchers with ambition to find the general solution for modern problems of public safety.
