摘要: |
The objective of this research was to investigate the potential to improve traffic signal operating efficiency through the use of VMGT as low cost local adaptive control. The primary measures of intersection efficiency investigated were average delay and intersection throughput. The primary investigative method involved software-in-the-loop simulation, which allows for computerized traffic simulations to be connected in real time with field traffic signal controller software, thus allowing multiple strategies to be tested with identical traffic conditions and without the difficulties of in-field traffic disruption. / NOTE: Final rept. / Supplementary Notes: Sponsored by Tennessee Technological Univ., Cookeville.
