Rule Optimization of Self-organization Control of Traffic Signals in Urban Net Based on Hydrodynamic

Abstract

Prior researchers indicate that hydrodynamics models of traffic-flow is lack of description of changing mechanism under urban traffic, and self-organization control system can not explain the dynamic characteristics of urban traffic flow clearly. The aim of the paper is to puts forward an optimized method on control rules that make the united application of hydrodynamics and self-organization system in signal control. The parameter sets of control rules are built from parameter sets of road network which are evolution under hydrodynamic equations such as the length of each lane, phase, queue length and so on .With the aim of the maximum traffic volume at each intersection in the road network, the control rules optimize its parameter sets to adapt to the dynamic change. By means of the computer simulation, the application of signal self-organizing control under hydrodynamic is proved effective in urban traffic.a
