Ensuring transportation systems are efficient is a priority for modern society. Technological advances have made it possible for transportation systems to collect large volumes of varied data on an unprecedented scale. We propose a traffic signal control system which takes advantage of this new, high quality data, with minimal abstraction compared to other proposed systems. We apply modern deep...

In this paper, we describe a pilot implementation and field test of a recently developed approach to real-time adaptive traffic signal control. The pilot system, called SURTRAC (Scalable Urban Traffic Control), follows the perspective of recent work in multi-agent planning and implements a decentralized, schedule-driven approach to traffic signal control. Under this approach, each intersection ...

This paper deals with measurements of the combined effect of signal strength and background traffic load on speech quality in IEEE 802.11 WLAN. The ITU-T G.729AB encoding scheme is deployed in this study and the Distributed Internet Traffic Generator (D-ITG) is used for the purpose of background traffic generation. The speech quality and background traffic load are assessed by means of the acco...

This paper presents an acyclic real-time traffic signal control model with transit priority based on a rolling horizon process for isolated intersections. The developed model consists of two components, including: an Improved Genetic Algorithm (IGA)-based signal optimization module and a microscopic traffic simulation module. The acyclic real-time traffic signal control model optimizes the phas...

Cyber criminals may abuse open wireless networks or those with weak encryption for cyber crimes. Assume surveillance has identified suspect traffic such as child porn downloading traffic on the Internet. To locate such criminals, law enforcement has to first identify which mobile (MAC) is generating suspect traffic behind a wireless router. The challenge is how to correlate the private wireless...

The main object of this study was to design and implement a suitable algorithm and its simulation for an intelligent traffic signal simulator. The system developed is able to sense the presence or absence of vehicles within certain range by setting the appropriate duration for the traffic signals to react accordingly. By employing mathematical functions to calculate the appropriate timing for t...

The motive of this paper is to design and implement “Intelligent Traffic with Emergency Control and Stolen Vehicle Tracking System” using Artificial Intelligence. Thus this system is capable to sense the density of vehicles for intelligent traffic management and also able to recognize emergency vehicles as ambulance to allow that signal for emergency control, as well as this system also recogni...

At signalized intersections, green times should be assigned to satisfy the traffic demand for all approaches. Stage-based signal control is the most common and basic control policy worldwide particularly at Japanese signalized intersections. It is defined as a signal control policy in which compatible traffic movements are grouped to move together in a specific time span within a signal cycle, ...

Abstract Arterial traffic signal control is a very important aspect of traffic management system. Efficient arterial traffic signal control strategy can reduce delay, stops, congestion, and pollution and save travel time. Commonly used pre-timed or traffic actu...

Traffic signals are one of the vital control elements of traffic management and control systems under purview of Departments of Transportation (DOTs) nationwide. They directly affect mobility, safety, and environmental parameters of the transportation networks. Traffic engineers in DOTs often face pressure for extracting additional benefits from existing signal control equipment, influenced by ...
