Change of Traffic Parameters when Introduced Adaptive Method of Traffic Light Object Control

Abstract

The article is devoted to improving the quality of life in cities by implementing the concept of an “intelligent” city and developing an automated transport infrastructure. The following factors are considered in the work: the traffic intensity of vehicles and the mode of operation of traffic signal regulation. In work, the mode of operation of a traffic light is determined by an adaptive method. The main tool for increasing the capacity is the choice of the optimal ratio of phase coefficients and the optimal cycle time. Considered the influence of capacity on the parameters of road traffic, the environmental load from automobile transport. The dependence of the traffic parameters for different cycle times is established. A change in fuel consumption and in the content of harmful emissions for various traffic light modes is given. The justification is given for the necessity to change the traffic light mode after increasing the number of lanes in the street road network.
