교통사고의 발생은 교통 혼잡의 주요 원인으로 작용되어 교통사고에 의한 직 간접적 손해비용까지 지출되고 있다. 따라서 교통사고를 사전에 예방하거나 사고가 발생한 후 신속하게 처리할 수 있는 실시간 교통사고 대처 시스템이 요구되고 있다. 즉, 교통사고 자동검지 시스템의 필요성은 가 피해자의 구분에 활용하는 것 이외에 신속한 인명구조와 사고처리 등의 교차로 유고관리가 가능하며, 교통사고로 발생할 수 있는 교통 혼잡을 최소화 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 형태의 충돌 및 추돌 사고를 검지하는 시스템의 성능을 개선하기 위한 것으로 영상 또는 소리라는 매체에 기반을 둔 시스템에서 자동 검지의 한계성을 도출하고 개선하고자 하였다. 테스트 베드를 기반으로 자동검지 실패의 원인을 분석하고 그 원인에 따른 오인식의 문제점을 개선하여 운전자 단독사고로 인하여 차량 추적이 불가능한 경우, 소리 없이 발생한 사고, 야간에 발생한 사고 등의 문제점들을 극복함과 동시에 성능을 개선하는데 그 목적이 있다.

This study is for the development of a model to convert a set of rotational bodies into the new theoretical design for the equivalent volume transformation between the geometric angles and the specific intensity in the traffic control material system, called the retroreflection system to guide the night driver for safety. There are five new models theoretically identified with the concept of the retroreflective performance and human environment of the night driver. The new system can evaluate the design in retroreflective transportation material system with better performance, safety, and economy.

지능형 교통 시스템(ITS)은 1) 도로의 상황 분석과 2) 위반 차량의 검지를 자동으로 수행하여 원활한 교통 제어를 제공하는 목적을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 교차로에서 위반 차량을 검지하기 위하여 도로위의 차량 검지하고 차량의 진행 경로를 추적하는 기법으로 주간에는 배경 영상을 사용하지 않고 프레임간의 차를 이용하여 차량의 움직임 정보를 추출하고 야간에는 전조등을 검출하여 차량을 추적하는 기법으로 주간의 겨우 차량의 움직임만을 감지하므로 칼만 필터(Kalman Filter) 등에 의한 예측이 불가능하므로 현재 위치와 진행방향으로 움직임 정보를 추적하는 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 주간 그림자의 영향과 야간의 난반사의 영향을 제거할 수 있고 입력 영상을 320x240으로 축소하여 초당 10프레임이상으로 처리하므로 정확한 차량의 움직임을 추적할 수 있다.

Freeway FFS (Free-Flow Speed) under the state of LOS (Level of Service) A has been regarded as a homogeneous state to all levels of traffic volume. The features of low-density FFS is served as the basic data for a decision on limited maximal speed, accident analysis, simulation modeling etc. A few researches for the macroscopic characteristics of design and operation speed have been reported, and any study for the microscopic features of freeway free-flow speed under the state of low density has not been done. Therefore, the characteristics of low-density FFS according to the level of traffic volume (1-3 veh/30 sec) and daily hour periods (0-5, 6-8, 9-11, 12-19, 20-23) is microscopically analyzed in this study with huge volume and speed data. It was found that speed distributions are changed and show different behaviors under the conditions of traffic volume levels and daily time periods. V85s (85th percentile speed) at early morning and night periods decrease when levels of traffic volume increase, whereas V85s at day time do not show considerable differences. Especially, FFSs of levels of traffic volume at early morning and night periods, despite low density, is analyzed as heterogeneity, but homogeneity at day time.

In this study, traffic safety technology was developed for rural areas by reviewingthe relevant literature and data from the Traffic Accident Analysis System for the Chungcheong region.The goal is to reduce traffic accidents in small regional cities and rural areas in Korea. A road shoulder recognition light was developed to fit the pedestrian characteristics of the people using transportation in rural areas. It also minimizes damage to crops due to light pollution from traffic lights and street lights, and it supplements problems of damage from collision with vehicles and agricultural machines. The efficiency of the technology developed in this study was verified by comparing and analyzing the number of traffic accidents and the saved cost before and after its installation. A test bedwas established based on rural areas and is being evaluated for its applicability and effectiveness. It is expected that the reliability of such facilities could be improved through continuous studies, data collection, and analysis.

Image processing technique in the outdoor environment is very sensitive, and it tends to lose a lot of accuracy when it rapidly changes by outdoor environment. Therefore, in order to calculate accurate traffic information using the traffic monitoring system, we must resolve removing shadow in transition time, Distortion by the vehicle headlights at night, noise of rain, snow, and fog, and occlusion. In the research, we developed a system to calibrate the amount of traffic, speed, and time occupancy by using image processing technique in a variety of outdoor environments change. This system were tested under outdoor environments at the Gonjiam test site, which is managed by Korea Institute of Construction Technology (www.kict.re.kr) for testing performance. We evaluated the performance of traffic information, volume counts, speed, and occupancy time, with 4 lanes (2 lanes are upstream and the rests are downstream) from the 16th to 18th December, 2008. The evaluation method performed as based on the standard data is a radar detection compared to calculated data using image processing technique. The System evaluation results showed that the amount of traffic, speed, and time occupancy in period (day, night, sunrise, sunset) are approximately 92-97% accuracy when these data compared to the standard data.

The performance of road markings is classified into the visibility at daytime, night time, wet condition and rainy conditions. The objective of this study is to obtain the driving safety of drivers under conditions of unstable weather condition such as the rain. The visibility of road markings is closely related to the preview time and detection distances and the ways to improve road marking materials and increase the dry retroreflectivity and wet retroreflectivity, which are the measures of daytime and nighttime visibility is researched to decrease the traffic accidents. For this purpose, Road marking glass beads with the refraction rate of 1.5 and 2.2 are introduced to raise the retroreflectivity. After investigating the minimum threshold retroreflectivity and Install Minimum retroreflectivity at home and abroad, minimum control values for the roadmarking visibility and improvement of nightime rainy retroreflectivity are suggested by physical properties and retroreflectivity experiments.

The purpose of this paper is to develop a multi-sensor fusion-based traffic information acquisition system with robust to environmental changes. it combines the characteristics of each sensor and is more robust to the environmental changes than the video detector. Moreover, it is not affected by the time of day and night, and has less maintenance cost than the inductive-loop traffic detector. This is accomplished by synthesizing object tracking informations based on a radar, vehicle classification informations based on a video detector and reliable object detections of a infrared range finder. To prove the effectiveness of the proposed system, I conducted experiments for 6 hours over 5 days of the daytime and early evening on the pedestrian - accessible road. According to the experimental results, it has 88.7% classification accuracy and 95.5% vehicle detection rate. If the parameters of this system is optimized to adapt to the experimental environment changes, it is expected that it will contribute to the advancement of ITS.

교통량의 급속한 증가에 의해 교통사고 발생건수는 34년동안 무려 50배가 증가하였다. 또한, 교통사고 사망자수도 매년 5.1%씩 증가하고 있다. 본 논문의 목적은 속초경찰서에서 실시하고 있는 음주운전 단속의 문제점 및 개선방안을 조사-분석하고, 사고지점의 도로환경이 전한가를 분석하는 데 있다. 본 연구를 통해 속초경찰서의 음주단속지점 위치가 변하지 않고 동일하여 많은 음주운전자가 있음에도 불구하고 단속이 제대로 이루어지지 않고 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 사례연구에서도 알 수 있듯이 단속시간이 야간에 편중되어 있어 낮에 이루어지는 음주운전에는 안일한 자세를 취하고 있다. 그러므로, 앞으로 단속지점의 변화와 단속시간을 늘려 음주운전자 및 음주사고를 줄여야 하겠다.
