Traffic Signal Green - Wave Control Strategy Based on Divers ’ Behaviors

The behaviour of vehicles runing in urban areas depends on the driver behaviour and also, their are influenced by traffic control and environmental factors. On the basis of this context and the increase, year by year, of the number of vehicles in urban areas, the authors are focused on finding solutions to use the current road infrastructure in an intensive manner. The paper presents a new model for a bidirectional green wave traffic signal control which is improved by the results of analyzing the relation between vehicles/drivers behavior and the movement of the vehicles and groups of vehicles. The authors will model this dependency using MATLAB software and the paper is concluded with the results of testing of several measures on this functional model.
