Adaptive Traffic Signal Control: Game-Theoretic Decentralized vs. Centralized Perimeter Control

Blog Article

This paper compares the operation of a decentralized Nash bargaining traffic signal controller (DNB) to the operation of state-of-the-art adaptive and gating traffic signal control.Perimeter control (gating), based on the network fundamental diagram (NFD), was applied on the borders of a protected urban network (PN) to prevent and/or disperse traffic congestion.The operation of gating control and local adaptive controllers was compared to the operation of the developed DNB traffic signal controller.

The controllers Effects of volume-matched once-weekly and thrice-weekly high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on body adiposity in adults with central obesity: Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial were implemented and their performance assessed on a grid network in the INTEGRATION microscopic simulation software.The results show that the DNB controller, although not designed to solve perimeter control problems, successfully prevents congestion Orbital MALT Lymphoma: A Case Report from building inside the PN and improves the performance of the entire network.Specifically, the DNB controller outperforms both gating and non-gating controllers, with reductions in the average travel time ranging between 21% and 41%, total delay ranging between 40% and 55%, and emission levels/fuel consumption ranging between 12% and 20%.

The results demonstrate statistically significant benefits of using the developed DNB controller over other state-of-the-art centralized and decentralized gating/adaptive traffic signal controllers.
