Abstract EN
Vibration comfort is an important factor affecting the quality of service (QoS) of bus.
In order to make people involved in supervising bus’s vibration comfort and improve passengers’ riding experience, a novel mode of passenger crowdsourcing is introduced.
In this paper, comfort degree of bus vibration is calculated from bus’s vibration signals collected by passengers’ smartphones and sent through WiFi to the Boa web server which shows the vibration comfort on the LCD deployed in bus and maybe trigger alarm lamp when the vibration is beyond the threshold.
Three challenges here have been overcome: firstly, space coordinate transformation algorithm is used to solve the constant drift of signals collected; secondly, a low-pass filter is designed to isolate gravity from signals real-timely via limited computing resources; thirdly, an embedded evaluation system is developed according to the calculation procedure specified by criterion ISO 2631-1997.
Meanwhile, the model proposed is tested in a practical running environment, the vibration data in whole travel are recorded and analyzed offline.
The results show that comfort degree of vibration obtained from the experimental system is identical with the truth, and this mode is proved to be effective.
