In this paper, we wish to construct a optimal traffic cycle using wire remote control. if police vehicle or ambulance suddenly enter the traffic Intersection, it will increase the traffic accident. In this paper, wireless traffic light use the radio traffic control signal and research about the hardware manufacture to check special detectors on urgency vehicles may safety and rapidly enter traffic intersection. Also, this paper present a traffic signal control conditions that analyzes different traffic intersection flows in cases of saturated flows, where the real traffic volume demand is large and the capacity constraints of bottlenecks have significant effects on the flow patterns. Through computer simulation this wireless traffic light has been proven to be much more safety and efficient than fixed traffic signal light which does not consider emergency vehicles for safety escort.

The subject this paper is the signal control strategy under oversaturated conditions. The nature of traffic control for oversaturation is essentially different from the standard control modes. While under non-saturated situation traffic control is needed for the sake of safety and efficiency, the throughput is essential under oversaturated conditions. Therefore berth objective and strategies differ. For an oversaturated stream the cycle time and the signal offset are thought to be of rather secondary importance. For this case the green split may well be the most important control variable to serve the excessive demand. Up to now, however, most efforts have concentrated on the strategy with the concept which lies just on the extension of Webster's. "Green-split Coordination Strategy for Over-Saturated Networks", presents newly contrived three types of strategies named Forward-coordination, Backward-coordination and Network-coordination respectively and describes the algorithms with the evaluations. The forward coordination strategy treats the forward wave of flow between two signals. The aim is to prevent the outbreak of queue due to the accumulation of temporary excess of demand in near-saturation or saturation flow. The backward coordination strategy treats the backward rave of flow between two signals. The goal is to prevent the waste of green time caused by the exit block at the upstream signal. for this purpose a feedback regulation is provided of the upstream green-split so that the inflow-outflow balance is kept zero. The resultant surplus of green time is alloted to other signal stages. Also here the examination is made of the appropriate value of the feedback control parameter. The network coordination strategy is operated to maximize the network throughput in a specific direction applying a bang-bang control at the bottleneck intersection. This is a type of intervenient control for policy reasons. For this strategy the green-split coordinations, particuarly the backward coordination, are essential as the tactical elements. In order to evaluate the preposed strategies those are compared with the latest existing strategy called saturation-degree-ratio control by the simulation experiments in an assumed 4$\times$4 grid network. The results are satisfactory showing a 10-15% reduction in delays and a 15% increase in network capacity.

The coordinated control of the traffic signals of adjacent intersections can reduce delays, relative number of stops and congestions in the coordinated traffic area. The road capacity can be increased to a certain extend because the stopping and starting of vehicles facing red traffic lights can be avoided in many instances due to the progression established along an artery. However, if traffic centers or leaves the main flow in irregular volumes on the intermediate road section, a coordination of traffic signals is unnecessary and may even be harmful. Therefore, a computer simulation model to simulate and predict the effectiveness of a synchronized traffic signal system in the CBD of Seoul was developed and alternative policy variables, such as cycle time, offsets, phase splits, to be fed into the simulation model had to be generated. This is a report of (1) the development of a heuristic algorithm for the determination of phase splits when there are amber periods specifically reserved for left turns and (2) the computerization of time-space diagramming.

실시간 신호제어군의 결합 및 분리를 통한 실시간 연동신호교차로군 조절은 최근에 강조되고 있는 첨단교통신호제어시스템의 기능 중 하나이다. 필요에 따라 연동축 및 연동방향을 능동적으로 조절하는 과정에서 신호제어군의 실시간 분리 결합 상황이 발생하며, 이때 필수적으로 옵셋을 재조정을 위한 '옵셋전이시간'이 소요된다. 이 때 '옵셋전이시간'이 필요이상 긴 경우 비효율적인 신호운영변수가 장시간 적용됨으로 인하여, 필요이상 짧은 경우 갑작스런 신호시간 변화에 따른 교통흐름 장애 (turbulence)로 인하여 해당 구간 신호제어 운영 효율성이 저하될 수 있다. 현재의 국내 실시간 신호제어시스템은 3주기에서 5주기에 걸쳐 '옵셋전이시간'을 적용할 것을 개략적으로 권고하고 있으나 해당분야에서의 공학적 연구가 미비하다. 본 연구에서는 네 가지 다른 옵셋전이시간(한 주기길이, 두 주기길이, 세 주기길이, 네 주기길이)를 활용하는 네 가지 다른 옵셋전이방법의 성능을 CORSIM 모의실험 환경에서 CORSIM RTE 기능을 이용하여 분석하고 비교하였다. 설정된 총 15가지 상이한 교통소통 상황을 토대로 다양한 무작위난수를 적용하는 모의실험을 수행하며 수집된 평균 차량지체자료를 통계 분석한 결과 한 주기 길이 옵셋전이시간이 본 연구에서 설정된 모든 교통상황에서 기타 옵셋전이시간보다 우수하거나(낮은 지체도) 적어도 동일한 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구는 한 주기 '옵셋전이길이' 적용을 옵셋전이 적용지침으로 사용할 것을 제안한다.

COSMOS는 1990년부터 개발되어 현재까지 현장실험 및 시스템 검증과 여러 차례의 기능개선을 통하여 점차 안정화 되어가고 있으며, 그 효율성이 입증되어 서울시 전역으로 확산되고 있는 추세이다. 그러나 현재는 CI의 옵셋패턴이 한쪽 축 방향의 유입/유출 이동류에 의해서만 산출되고 있어, 다른 축방향에 속한 교차로는 자신과 무관한 옵셋패턴에 의해 운영되는 경우가 발생한다. 또한 Sub Area 결합/분리시 CI의 유입/유출 방향의 축에 속한 Sub Area와의 결합/분리만이 가능한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 CI의 동서와 남북 축 각각의 유입/유출 방향을 설정하여, 두 축의 옵셋패턴과 현재 운영 주축을 계산하여 설정하도록 하였다. Sub Area 내의교차로들은 자신이 속한 축의 옵셋패턴에 의해 운영되며, 결합/분리시에는 주축방향간의 '결합'과 이외의 경우의 '연동'의 개념으로 운영되도록 하였다. 개선된 알고리즘은 COSMOS 운영 S/W에 탑재하여, 강남구 10여개 교차로를 대상으로 기능성 평가 및 효율성 평가를 실시하였다. 평가 결과 개선 알고리즘이 기존방식보다 통행시간을 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다.
