Abstract
Traffic patterns in urban areas present a complex and dynamic system that is characterized by inherent uncertainties. The presented study is a traffic light control system with feedback. The controller of the system is designed in a fuzzy and conventional way and is applied to a network of two junctions. The verification is performed using the MATLAB fuzzy toolbox platform (for designing the fuzzy controller) and Aimsun platform for microsimulation of the two junctions using the two types of controllers. To accomplish the control of the system a fuzzy controller on heuristic rules proposed to allow adaptive traffic control on signalized junctions in urban environments. The Fuzzy Toolbox in MATLAB is used to simulate the fuzzy controller. The Aimsun traffic simulator is used to model and simulate a traffic network of two intersections. The green light duration in the Aimsun model is based on the results for the two controllers from two separated experiments. Simulations of Aimsun models with the two types of controllers, the fuzzy and the conventional one, are compared. The experiment is performed under the premise that the traffic flow is oversaturated. Findings show that in a network of two junctions both controllers perform in a similar manner for the first junction. However, for the second junction, the fuzzy controller tends to have some advantages over the conventional controller with regard to higher traffic flow. In conclusion, the overall performance of the fuzzy controller is better than the one of the conventional controller, but further research is needed for more complex traffic networks.
