| 3 | Adaptive signal control and coordination for urban traffic control in a connected vehicle environment: A review显示文摘Existing signal control systems for urban traffic are usually based on traffic flow data from fixed location detectors.Because of rapid advances in emerging vehicular communication,connected vehicle(CV)-based signal control demonstrates significant improvements over existing conventional signal control systems.Though various CV-based signal control systems have been investigated in the past decades,these approaches still have many issues and drawbacks to overcome.We summarize typical components and structures of these existing CV-based urban traffic signal control systems and digest several important issues from the summarized vital concepts.Last,future research directions are discussed with some suggestions.We hope this survey can facilitate the connected and automated vehicle and transportation research community to efficiently approach next-generation urban traffic signal control methods and systems. | Jiangchen Li Liqun Peng Kaizhe Hou Yong Tian Yulin Ma Shucai Xu Tony Z.Qiu | 2023 | Digital Transportation and Safety2023，2，2： | 0 |
| 4 | Exploring the impact of a coordinated variable speed limit control on congestion distribution in freeway显示文摘Over the past few decades,urban freeway congestion has been highly recognized as a serious and worsening traffic problem in the world.To relieve freeway congestion,several active traffic and demand management(ATDM) methods have been developed.Among them,variable speed limit(VSL) aims at regulating freeway mainline flow upstream to meet existing capacity and to harmonize vehicle speed.However,congestion may still be inevitable even with VSL implemented due to extremely high demand in actual practice.This study modified an existing VSL strategy by adding a new local constraint to suggest an achievable speed limit during the control period.As a queue is a product of the congestion phenomenon in freeway,the incentives of a queue build-up in the applied coordinated VSL control situation were analyzed.Considering a congestion occurrence(a queue build-up)characterized by a sudden and sharp speed drop,speed contours were utilized to demonstrate the congestion distribution over a whole freeway network in various scenarios.Finally,congestion distributions found in both VSL control and non-VS control situations for various scenarios were investigated to explore the impact of the applied coordinated VSL control on the congestion distribution.An authentic stretch of Whitemud Drive(WMD),an urban freeway corridor in Edmonton,Alberta,Canada,was employed to implement this modified coordinated VSL control strategy;and a calibrated micro-simulation VISSIM model(model functions) was applied as the substitute of the real-world traffic system to test the above mentioned performance.The exploration task in this study can lay the groundwork for future research on how to improve the presented VSL control strategy for achieving the congestion mitigation effect on freeway. | Jing Cao Dawei Hu Ying Luo Tony Z.Qiu Zhuanglin Ma | 2015 | Journal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering(English Edition)2015，2，3： | 0 |
