Description

Crossroad and the soft intersection system of fork in the road stacking-type
Technical field
The present invention is a kind of cross and the soft intersection system of fork in the road stacking-type, belongs to technical field of traffic control.
Background technology
At present, urban traffic control is a very large order, and in general, urban traffic control adopts various ways:
(1) timing controlled: traffic control adopts Traffic signal control, by the timing scheme operation of setting in advance, timing according to the historical data that is the traffic volume.In one day, only by single period timing controlled of being called of a timing scheme, in one day, the different periods are selected multi-period timing controlled of being called of different timing schemes.According to historical traffic data, determine the method for its optimization timing.The most frequently used signal timing dial method has now: Welbert method, critical lane method, stop line method, conflict point method.Time control method is the widest a kind of traffic control mode of using at present, and it is relatively adapted to the variation of vehicle flowrate rule, the vehicle flowrate crossing of (even close to saturation state) greatly.But because its timing scheme obtains according to the historical data of traffic study, and just remain unchanged once determining, until readjust next time.Obviously, this mode can not adapt to the change at random of traffic flow, thereby its control effect is poor.
(2) induction is controlled: actuated signal control does not have the fixing cycle, operating principle is the import at actuated signal control, be equipped with wagon detector, when a certain signal phase starts to open, give a green light, in actuated signal control device, set in advance one " initial green light time ".While finishing to initial green light time, increase a preset time interval, if do not have follow-up vehicle to arrive at this moment in interval, change immediately phase place; If follow-up vehicle detected, arrive, a car often detected, just from detecting moment of vehicle, preset " a unit green extension " of green light phase place prolongation.Green light can extend to one preset " maximum green time " always.When phase place Green extension arrives maximum value, even if detector has still detected and sent a car, also to interrupt the right of way of this phase place, switching signal phase place.Induction control method is owing to can carrying out according to the variation of traffic the timing scheme of conditioning signal, therefore than time control method, has better control effect, is specially adapted to that traffic volume temporal evolution is large and irregular, primary and secondary phase place vehicle flowrate differs larger crossing.The defect that induction control method exists is, whether induction is only controlled has vehicle arrival to make a policy according to green light phase place, and comprehensively the vehicle arrival situation of other red light phase place is carried out decision-making, therefore it cannot really respond the transport need of each phase place, also just can not make the total delay of vehicle minimum.
(3) Self Adaptive Control: continuous measurement traffic flow, itself and the dynamic characteristic of wishing are compared, utilize difference to change the adjustable parameter of system or to produce a control, thereby no matter guarantee how environment changes, all can make to control effect and reach optimum.Adaptive control system has two classes, i.e. timing parameter real-time selection system and real-time traffic Simulations system.
Timing parameter selective system is before system puts into operation, drafts the contrast relationship of a set of timing parameter and traffic rank, for the traffic volume of different brackets, selects the timing parameter combination of corresponding optimum.The timing parameter syntagmatic corresponding to the traffic volume that this cover is drafted is in advance stored in central control computer, central control computer is by being located at the wagon flow throughput data of the wagon detector feedback of each intersection, automatically select suitable timing parameter, and carry out the real-time control to road network traffic signals according to selected timing parameter combination.
Real-time traffic Simulations system does not need to store any set timing scheme in advance, does not need to determine in advance the corresponding selection relation of a set of timing parameter and the traffic volume yet.It is to rely on certain traffic Mathematical Modeling that is stored in central computer, the real time traffic data feeding back is analyzed, and timing parameter is optimized and revised.The optimization of timing parameter is that the predicted value with integrated objective function (delay time at stop, stop frequency, the degree of crowding and oil consumption etc.) is foundation.Therefore, it can guarantee all operations under best timing scheme is controlled of whole road network when section in office.
As a whole, Adaptable System be controlled at the real-time detection that depends on to a great extent traffic flow data, so system is very high to the precision of traffic checkout equipment and traffic data transmission equipment and reliability requirement.Compare with timing system, the equipment configuration of adaptive control system is much complicated, and it is high a lot of that construction investment is wanted.
Exactly because traffic control problem exists above-mentioned complicated factor, need to adopt the technology of some other necessity to be improved, can alleviate congested traffic condition.
