Distributed Traffic Signal Control of Interconnected Intersections: A Two-Lane Traffic Network Model
Practical and accurate traffic models play an important role in capturing real traffic dynamics and then in achieving effective control performance. This paper studies traffic signal control in a traffic network with multiple interconnected intersections, where the target is to balance the vehicle density on each lane by controlling the green times of each phase at every intersection. Different from traditional road-based modeling schemes, a two-lane intersection model is first proposed to model the flow propagation in a more accurate way. A distributed model predictive control (MPC) method is then presented to assign the green times. To enable the real-time feasibility of the proposed approach, the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is incorporated with the distributed MPC scheme for solving the problem. Finally, the simulation studies performed in VISSIM for a six-intersection traffic network in Dalian, China, show the effectiveness and characteristics of the proposed method.
