Simulation of queue length and vehicle delays on signal-controlled intersection

Abstract

The extensive use of information technology in the field of traffic control will increase the traffic capacity of intersection points and transports. To assess the efficacy of changing options for the road traffic organization or the reorganization of intersection points, you need to know the average delay in vehicles and the length of the queue. The adaptive traffic light control is one of such tools. Simulation modeling of traffic flows use for the definition of its work. The aim of this work is to create a simulation model of controlled intersection, which can evaluate the efficiency of the application the adaptive regulation in various traffic situations, including the availability or deficiency of pedestrian traffic through the intersection. The numerical experiment in in the model pass with using of the Monte Carlo method, which can to draw a conclusion about the calculated parameter on the basis of the result of the reproduction of the calculation model.
