Abstract
An optimization algorithm of urban traffic signal coordinated control with bus priority, which is aiming at achieving optimal comprehensive traffic efficiency, is proposed in this paper. Six kinds of key parameters that dominate signal control effects are extracted from abundant factors. Based on these parameters, an advance and flexible coding scheme which can generate detail signal control information in QGA is put forward. Considering travel time, no wait passing rate, crossing delay, green wave effect and other factors, a new fitness function is constructed. Verified by simulations in PARAMICS, the optimized signal control scheme can obviously improve comprehensive regional traffic efficiency.
