Cooperative Traffic Control With Green Wave Coordination for Multiple Intersections Based on the Internet of Vehicles

Traffic congestion is a critical concern in most cities. Inefficient traffic control wastes time and fuel, and causes harmful carbon emissions, road accidents, and many economic problems. This paper proposes a cooperative traffic control framework for optimizing the global throughput and travel time for multiple intersections. Adjacent intersections are considered in analyzing their joint passing rates and attempting to maximize the number of vehicles traveling through a road network. The proposed framework provides fairness for each road segment and realizes the green wave concept for arterial roads. This paper extends previous studies by considering the passing rates of continuous road segments and coordinating traffic signals of multiple intersections. The simulation results show that the approach outperforms existing schemes in that it achieves a high global throughput, reduces the average waiting time, lowers the total travel time, and decreases average CO2 emissions. To verify the feasibility of the proposed framework, a wireless access in vehicular environments/dedicated short-range communications-based prototype for lane-level dynamic traffic control is designed and implemented.
