چکیده مقاله:
Timing actuated traffic signals is usually done by methodologies
considering minimizing delay times, stop times, queue length etc.
as the core idea. In none of such methodologies the effects of
other adjacent intersections are considered. In other words, there
is no control over queue congestion in such methodologies. In the
proposed algorithm of traffic signs optimization, using an internal
(RT/IMPOST) metering policy maintains an optimum queue
length ratio within the network. In this method, the effect of
upstream intersection is considered in timing procedure.
In this paper a traffic signals optimization method is elaborated
and proposed for the whole network and has been particularized in
three aspects: ۱) The queue length ratio within the whole network:
in this aspect, the queue length ratio has been conserved within an
optimum interval ۲) the queue time ratio: the time ratio of vehicles
movement in congested condition to the free flow condition has
been restricted and ۳) the queue speed ratio: in this case the
proportion of vehicles speed in congested condition to free flow
speed has been restricted and conserved. The aim of these
algorithms is to minimize the difference of queue length, time and
speed ratios with their corresponding optimum values which could
lead into a more optimized timing and determining efficient green
phase timing for each intersection. With comparison of the results
taken from each of these three algorithms, it was cleared up that
queue length ratio algorithm has better results for oversaturated
networks and could ameliorate the traffic conditions better
compared to the other algorithms.
