There is an ever increasing demand for intelligent and efficient urban vehicle systems that fulfill several requirements, e.g., low cost maintainability and high passenger comfort. Concerning these goals reliable methods are needed to model and to evaluate the imposed performances. In this paper a spectral analysis of the suspension system of a commercial city bus is presented. Based on experimental data taken on a city bus, the vibrations emerging on the wheels and the body are analyzed in the frequency domain. The goal of the analysis is to characterize the main eigenfrequencies of the suspension system and its damping in amplitude and also to evaluate both the road and the suspension system in terms of passenger comfort according to ISO standards.
