  • Abstract
    This paper describes a research on The Flexible Bus Systems (FBS) using Zigbee as a communication medium. The Flexible Bus System is a demand responsive transit (DRT) but it is more efficient and convenient in a sense that it entertains passenger´s demands and gives bus locations in real time. The real time synchronization of The Flexible Bus System makes it information rich and unique as compared to other DRTs. The Flexible Bus Systems is a system that can replace the Traditional Bus Systems with its flexibility and efficiency. This paper discusses the use of wireless technologies in The Flexible Bus Systems and how to make it more reliable using short range wireless technology Zigbee.
