신호연동화모형에서 통과폭모형은 지체를 최소화하지 못하고 지체도모형은 좌회전현시순서를 최적화하지 못한다. 이러한 모형의 단점을 극복하고자 개발된 KS_SIGNAL은 지체를 최소화하는 신호연동화모형이지만 지체를 산정하는데 있어 많은 한계를 갖고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 개발된 KS_SIGNAL의 지체모형을 개선하여 보다 우수한 연동신호시간과 현시순서를 산정해주는 신호최적화모형(KS_SIGNAL II)을 개발하여 FORTRAN 언어로 전산화하였다. 개발된 모형은 다양한 평가를 통하여 기존 모형들보다 전반적으로 우수한 것으로 입증되었다. 본 모형을 통하여 차량 출발 및 도착형태에 따른 대기차량 소거시간을 고려하는 옵셋 산정이 가능해져 지체를 최소화하는 간선도로의 신호최적화모형으로 활용될 경우 도로기능제고 및 지체도 감소에 의한 편익을 얻을 수 있다.

The most influential facility causing traffic disaster on the urban road is intersection. Accordingly, this study elected a region for case study from seabang three-way junction, partial section of Dongmoon Ro in Kwang-Ju city, to the intersection of Mudeung Library Entrance. It is believed that the signal progression is very effective on the basis of short interval of intersection and massive traffic volume. The signal progression was simulated by using TRANSYT-7F model. The following is summary of the simulation: According to the change of cycle length, P.I. delay and fuel consumption showed the tendency of being increased in case that cycle length becomes long or short, centering around the best cycle length. In the event of progressing the cycle length, the average speed per vehicle is increased by 11.39Km per hour and P.I value is improved by 40.65% so that it resulted in 42.86% improvement in the total travel time. Moreover, the fuel consumption in line with the progression practice produced fuel saving of 31.04%.

A tram has been the focus of a new public transportation that can solve a traffic jam, decreasing of public transit usage and environmental problem in recent years. This study aims to develop a signal optimization model for considering the traffic signal progression of tram and vehicles, when they are operated simultaneously in the same signalized intersections. This research developed the KS-SIGNAL-Tram model to obtain a minimum tram bandwidth and to minimize a vehicle's delay to perform a tram passive signal priority, it is based on the KS-SIGNAL model and is added to the properties of a tram and it's system. We conducted a micro simulation test to evaluate the KS-SIGNAL-Tram model, it showed that the developed optimization model is effective to prevent a tram's stop on intersection, to reduce a tram's travel time and vehicle's delay.

Traffic state classification is crucial for time-of-day (TOD) traffic signal control. This paper proposed a traffic state classification technique applying Deep-Embedded Clustering (DEC) method that uses a high dimensional traffic data observed at all signalized intersections in a traffic signal control sub area (SA). So far, signal timing plan has been determined based on the traffic data observed at the critical intersection in SA. The current method has a limitation that it cannot consider a comprehensive traffic situation in SA. The proposed method alleviates the curse of dimensionality and turns out to overcome the shortcomings of the current signal timing plan.

A computer algorithm is presented that evaluate the performance of coordinated signal timing plans for the signalized arterials. The procedures calculating delay and stops are based on Michalopoulos's analytical model derived from shock wave theory. The delay-offset relationship predicted from the algorithm produced consistent results with the delays venerated by TRANSYT-7F. From performance test, the delays estimated using the proposed a1gorithm are shown to be sensitive to the quality of progression as well as to traffic demand, link length, and turning flow ratio from upstream signal.

This study develops a real-time signal control algorithm based on sectional travel times and includes a field test and evaluation. The objective function of the signal control algorithm is the equalization of delay of traffic movements, and the main process is calculating dissolved time of the queue and delay using the sectional travel time and detection time of individual vehicles. Then this algorithm calculates the delay variation and a targeted red time and calculates the length of the cycle and phase. A progression factor from the US HCM was applied as a method to consider the effect of coordinating the delay calculation, and this algorithm uses the average delay and detection time of probe vehicles, which were collected during the accumulated cycle for a stabile signal control. As a result of the field test and evaluation through the application of the traffic signal control algorithm on four consecutive intersections at 400m intervals, reduction of delay and an equalization effect of delay against TOD control were confirmed using the standard deviation of delay by traffic movements. This study was conducted to develop a real-time traffic signal control algorithm based on sectional travel time, using general-purpose traffic information detectors. With the current practice of disseminating ubiquitous technology, the aim of this study was a fundamental change of the traffic signal control method.

This research proposes new tram signal coordination model, called MAXBAND MILP-Tram for a passive tram signal priority strategy. The proposed model was formulated based on the MAXBAND model that was a traditional arterial signal optimization model. The model could calculate the bandwidth solutions for both general-purpose-lane traffic and median-tram-lane traffic. Lower progression speed are applied for the tram traffic considering lower running speed and dwell time at the stations. A phase sequence procedure determines the green times and left-turn phase sequences for tram traffic in median tram lane. To estimate the performance of the MILP-Tram model, the control delay of trams were estimated using the micro simulation model, VISSIM. The analysis results showed 57 percent decrease of the tram compared to the conventional signal timing model. The delay for car, however, increased 18 percent. The sensitivity analysis indicated that the passive tram signal priority strategy using the offset and phase sequence optimization was effective in reducing the person delay under the congested traffic condition.
