Signalised intersection control in a connected vehicle environment: User throughput maximisation strategy

Connected vehicle (CV) technology is expected to bring additional opportunities share, collect, and exploit various information on vehicles their occupants. Assuming that CVs are able transmit on-board users data, a user-based signal timing optimisation (UBSTO) strategy proposed, designed optimise user throughput for signalised intersections. In the CV environment, inputs of proposed algorithm consist position speed CVs, as well number passengers travelling in each vehicle, while output optimum green time duration phase. addition, authors' adapt cycle length traffic volume condition. case missing same can also operate vehicle-based mode, where objective vehicle-throughput maximization. The performance compared with fully actuated controller (FAC) microscopic simulation, several scenarios, including different penetration rates. Authors' findings show UBSTO effectively increase decrease average delay comparison FAC, prioritising higher on-board. These have implications further development prioritization strategies public transport ride-sharing vehicles.
