Rooftop wireless antenna

With the Sencity Road MIMO, Huber+Suhner is extending its portfolio of rooftop antennas for buses, commercial vehicles, trams and underground railways. The new Sensity Road MIMO is able to achieve a far higher data rate than a standard antenna, supporting applications with very high data rates, such as passenger information systems, passenger monitoring or internet on board.

With the Sencity Road MIMO, 7889 Huber+Suhner is extending its portfolio of rooftop antennas for buses, commercial vehicles, trams and underground railways.

The new Sensity Road MIMO is able to achieve a far higher data rate than a standard antenna, supporting applications with very high data rates, such as passenger information systems, passenger monitoring or internet on board.

Depending on the version, this compact omni-directional antenna includes two broadband radiating elements for 2G/3G/4G mobile communication and GPS, or three radiating elements for Wi-Fi 2.4/5 GHz. The antenna

supports Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) in the frequency range 698 MHz to 2700 MHz for all mobile communication networks.

The mobile communication version of the MIMO antenna is available for operators with an existing mobile communication network while for those using hotspots at bus stops or in the depot to access Wi-Fi technology, the Wi-Fi MIMO version of Sensity Road will be available in the future.

    Buses services benefit from seamless Wi-Fi data transfer
    Ted Bowser explains how the almost total Wi-Fi coverage at Ride-On’s new bus garage is providing big benefits for the operator and passengers alike. The ability to download and upload data to and from the various systems on board buses has become central to mass transit operators’ business model. So when Ride-On, the public transportation system in Maryland’s Montgomery County, was moving one of its three depots into a bigger and purpose-built facility, connectivity was a key consideration.

    Vehicular networking architecture for local road weather services
    The Finnish Meteorological Institute is currently testing two-way delivery of local weather data as Timo Sukuvaara explains. Road weather information is one of the key ways in which ITS can help reduce traffic accidents and fatalities – which is why the Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI) has long provided road weather services. Now, the CoMoSeF (Cooperative Mobility Services of the Future) project has been developing communication methodologies to deliver road weather services directly to vehicles and g
