Real-Time Traffic Signal Control Based on Kalman Filtering Theory

Article Preview

Abstract:

Aiming at the problem that individual control of urban traffic lights and stable signal timing. This paper proposed a real timing control method of traffic lights which based on Kalman filter. This method use Kalman filter to predict the next time traffic flows and then update the signal timing. By field researching the traffic flow of intersection in peak hour and predicting the traffic flow. Then update the signal timing. Meanwhile using the VISSIM to simulate the intersection. The result of the simulation shows that the length of vehicle queue decreased significantly and the number of stops dropped. The efficiency of access has been greatly improved.
