Effects of Connectivity and Traffic Observability on an Adaptive Traffic Signal Control System

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2675(10), 800–814.

By: S. Islam n, M. Tajalli n, R. Mohebifard n & A. Hajbabaie n

TL;DR: The results showed that a 40% CV market share was required for the adaptive signal controller using only CV data to outperform signal control with only loop detector data, and integrating 10% of CV data with loop detectors data in the adaptive sign control improved traffic performance and travel time reliability.
