Joint optimization of vehicle-group trajectory and signal timing: Introducing the white phase for mixed-autonomy traffic stream

Transportation Research Part C: Emerging Technologies, 116, 102659.

author keywords: Connected and automated vehicle; White phase; Mixed-autonomy traffic; Selfdriving vehicles
TL;DR: A novel mixed-integer non-linear program to control the trajectory of mixed connected-automated vehicles (CAVs) and connected human-driven vehicles (CHVs) through signalized intersections and reveals that a higher CAV market penetration rate induces more frequent white phase indication compared to green-red signals.
