Abstract

This study investigates the reliability of DSRC-based traffic information system on the typical urban arterial with the minimum sample size method. VISSIM has been employed to calculate the required sample size. After comparing the number of hi-pass vehicles recorded from DSRC and the required sample size, this study found that the interrupted traffic state tends to generate more outliers than the uninterrupted one, the lack of the number of vehicles completely passing links with multiple driveways makes it difficult to estimate the reliable traffic information, the traffic information during peak hour is relatively more reliable than that during off-peak hour, and the reliability of DSRC-based traffic information system depends on the significance level in calculating the sample size. The driveway density and traffic signal operation due to the individual link length significantly affects the required sample size, resulting in determining the reliability of the DSRC-based traffic information system.

본 연구는 부산광역시의 전형적인 단속류 구간을 대상으로 DSRC를 통해 수집되는 구간교통정보의 신뢰성을 구간별 적정 차량 표본 수 산정기법을 통해 분석하였다. 해당 단속류 대상지를 구성하는 개별 구간에 대한 표본 수 산정을 위하여 VISSIM 모델을 이용하였다. 실제 DSRC를 통해 관찰된 하이패스 차량 수와 두 유의수준(90%와 95%)에서 산정된 적정 표본 수를 비교한 결과, 연속류에 비해 단속류에 더 많은 이상치의 발생요인이 존재한다는 점, 인접한 두 교차로와 다수의 진출입로로 구성된 하나의 구간을 통과하는 하이패스 차량의 부족으로 신뢰성 있는 구간교통정보의 집계가 어려운 점, 비첨두시간보다 첨두시간의 구간교통정보가 상대적인 신뢰성이 높은 점, 표본 수 산정의 유의수준에 따라 구간교통정보의 신뢰성이 차별화된다는 점 등을 확인할 수 있었다. 해당 구간의 길이에 따른 진출입로의 밀도와 교통신호운영의 차이는 유효 표본 수 산정에 직접적인 영향을 미치며 결국 구간교통정보의 신뢰성을 결정하게 된다. 따라서 구간의 길이에 따라 노변기지국의 개수를 조절하면 DSRC를 통해 수집되는 구간교통정보의 신뢰성이 개선될 것으로 기대된다.
