The CPS of a traffic-light controller is considered at an isolated intersection in a mixed-traffic highway-type situation with autonomous, semi-autonomous, and human-driven vehicles. Since conventional traffic controllers with fixed signal timings lead to intersection losses (loss of time waiting at the signal) and fuel wastage, we follow an approach based on the idea that reactive variable light timings can better control traffic and at the same time ensure safety. We use information about upcoming vehicles (position, velocity, acceleration and maximum braking power) to adjust the red-to-green ratios of the traffic signal to minimize the average loss per vehicle, using software to simulate a real-time traffic scenario. The results are analyzed to determine the optimal red-to-green ratios for a given cycle length and various traffic flow rates. 2013-09-04 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1373556580 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1373556580 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
