Traffic Signal Control Parameter Calculation Using Probe Data

Abstract

In signal control, which is one of the main functions of traffic control systems, appropriate signal control parameters are calculated based on the measurement data from vehicle detectors installed on the road. However, the installation and maintenance of vehicle detectors is costly, so realization of a signal control system that can reduce the number of vehicle detectors used while maintaining control level is required. In this paper, we propose a method to calculate signal control parameters without using measurement data from vehicle detectors using traffic information obtained from probe data.
