  • Loop detection systems have been used in real-time signal control system to collect traffic information for estimating queue lengths. The queue length algorithm uses speed as a key variable estimated from occupancy time and average vehicle length. The measurement of average vehicle length is affected from the lengths of feeder cable, but their effects have not yet been evaluated. In this study, the variability of average vehicle length due to the lengths of feeder cable is assessed through a field study, and a practical guidelines is proposed. By applying this result, the operational performance of real-time signal control system could be improved.

  • A GPS sensor is widely used in many areas such as navigation, or air traffic control. Particularly, the car navigation system is equipped with GPS sensor for locational information. However, when a car goes through a tunnel, forest, or built-up area, GPS receiver cannot get the enough number of satellite signals. In these situations, a GPS receiver does not reliably work. A GPS error can be formulated by sum of bias error and sensor noise. The bias error is generated by the geometric arrangement of satellites and sensor noise error is generated by the corrupted signal noise of receiver. To enhance GPS sensor accuracy, these two kinds of errors have to be removed. In this research, we make the road database which includes Road Database File (RDF). RDF includes road information such as road connection, road condition, coordinates of roads, lanes, and stop lines. Among the information, we use the stop line coordinates as a feature point to correct the GPS bias error. If the relative distance and angle of a stop line from a car are detected and the detected stop line can be associated with one of the stop lines in the database, we can measure the bias error and correct the car's location. To remove the other GPS error, sensor noise, the Kalman filter algorithm is used. Additionally, using the RDF, we can get the information of the road where the car belongs. It can be used to help the GPS correction algorithm or to give useful information to users.

  • The supply expansion of 5G services and personal smart devices has caused the sharp increase of data traffic and the demand of various services. Again, these facts have resulted in the huge demand of network bandwidth. However, existing network technologies using electronic signal have reached the limit to accommodate the demand. Therefore, in order to accept this request, optical internet has been studied actively. However, optical internet still has a lot of problems to solve, and among these barriers a very urgent issue is to develop QoS technologies. Hence, in order to achieve service differentiation between classes in optical internet, especially in OBS network, a new QoS method automatically tuning the size of data bursts is proposed in this article. Especially, the algorithm suggested in this article is based on fiber delay line.

  • Bridge Weigh-in-Motion(BWIM) system calculates a travelling vehicle's weight without interruption of traffic flow by analyzing the signals that are acquired from various sensors installed in the bridge. BWIM system or data accumulated from the BWIM system can be utilized to development of updated live load model for highway bridge design, fatigue load model for estimation of remaining life of bridges, etc. Field test with moving trucks including various load cases should be performed to guarantee successful development of precise BWIM system. In this paper, a numerical simulation technique is adopted as an alternative or supplement to the vehicle traveling test that is indispensible but expensive in time and budget. The constructed numerical model is validated by comparison experimentally measured signal with numerically generated signal. Also vehicles with various dynamic characteristics and travelling conditions are considered in numerical simulation to investigate the variation of bridge responses. Considered parameters in the numerical study are vehicle velocity, natural frequency of the vehicle, height of entry bump, and lateral position of the vehicle. By analyzing the results, it is revealed that the lateral position and natural frequency of the vehicle should be considered to increase precision of developing BWIM system. Since generation of vehicle travelling signal by the numerical simulation technique costs much less than field test, a large number of test parameters can effectively be considered to validate the developed BWIM algorithm. Also, when artificial neural network technique is applied, voluminous data set required for training and testing of the neural network can be prepared by numerical generation. Consequently, proposed numerical simulation technique may contribute to improve precision and performance of BWIM systems.

  • Current analysis of air passengers mainly relies on statistical methods, but there are limitations in analyzing detailed aspects such as travel routes, number of regional passengers and airport access times. However, with the advancement of big data technology and revised three data acts, big data-based transportation analysis has become more active. Mobile communication data, which can precisely track the location of mobile phone terminals, can serve as valuable analytical data for transportation analysis. In this paper, we propose a air passenger Origin/Destination (O/D) extraction algorithm based on mobile communication data that overcomes the limitations of existing air transportation user analysis methods. The algorithm involves setting airport signal detection zones at each airport and extracting air passenger based on their base station connection history within these zones. By analyzing the base station connection data along the passenger's origin-destination paths, we estimate the entire travel route. For this paper, we extracted O/D information for both domestic and international air passengers at all domestic airports from January 2019 to December 2020. To compensate for errors caused by mobile communication service provider market shares, we applied a adjustment to correct the travel volume at a nationwide citizen level. Furthermore correlation analysis was performed on O/D data and aviation statistics data for air traffic users based on mobile communication data to verify the extracted data. Through this, there is a difference in the total amount (4.1 for domestic and 4.6 for international), but the correlation is high at 0.99, which is judged to be useful. The proposed algorithm in this paper enables a comprehensive and detailed analysis of air transportation users' travel behavior, regional/age group ratios, and can be utilized in various fields such as formulating airport-related policies and conducting regional market analysis.

  • In COSMOS, an area for signal coordination is divided into subareas composed of several signalized intersections that share a common cycle time. Each subarea contains only one critical intersection having heavy traffic load. Subarea is a basic unit of control. The performance of COSMOS is highly dependent on the linkage rule between adjacent subareas. The purpose of this study is to provide an appropriate subarea linkage rule in COSMOS. This study developed a control strategy for Critical Intersection and Sub Area linkage. Critical Intersections calculate the Offset Pattern both East-West Axis and North-South Axis, and the coordination direction either East-West Axis or North-South Axis. Subarea can be combined with other one in all directions. The performance of the suggested linkage rule was evaluated on the real network in Gangnam-Gu. The result was that travel time was reduced by the suggested linkage rule.

  • In case of an emergency on a busy road of a city, drivers should make way for special vehicles such as police cars, fire engines, or ambulance as soon as possible. If road infrastructures recognize the movements of special vehicles, and transfer alert message to traffic signal controllers and normal cars through wireless network such as WAVE or TPEG, normal cars can prepare to make way in advance. As a result, it help special vehicles move faster. In this paper, we install a roof mark on the roof of a special vehicle, detect the mark through a mark recognition algorithm which includes perspective transformation, and get the inner information by decoding the digital pattern on it. The experiment results show that mark can be recognized 100% and 93.3% of inner digital data of the mark can be recognized, when the size of a mark is larger than $88cm{\times}88cm$ and the mark moves at a speed of 50km/s.
