  • This study aims to introduce a basic principle to improve the incident detection algorithm using traffic flow diagrams that can classify traffic states with a high reliability on the basis of the analysis of traffic flow characteristics under the recurrent or incident congestions. It is tried to newly classify the traffic states with the speed-flow and speed-occupancy diagrams. This is because McMaster algorithm has a tendancy on not identifying the traffic states exactly using the flow-occupancy diagram. In this study it shows that the classification of traffic states is applicable to use speed-occupancy relationship Therefore, it is necessary to determine some parameters to correctly classify the areas representing the traffic states and it may be possible to develop a new algorithm to detect the incident with a high reliability.

  • An understanding of interrelationships among basic characteristics of vehicular traffic flow, such as volum, speed, headtime, and density, is of prime importance. Similarly in providing proper level of servicebility in the field of base of design and traffic control, it is deeply connected. After all, with a view to improve traffic flow characteristics, future efforts about the mutual function development between rod and traffic should be made on the basis of present traffic characteristics. This paper figures out some traffic characteristics from field data and provides proper model of equation to estimate traffic volume on the road.

  • With the rapid growth of Internet, the importance of application traffic analysis is increasing for efficient network management. The statistical information in traffic flows can be efficiently utilized for application traffic identification. However, the packet out-of-order and retransmission occurred at the traffic collection point reduces the performance of the statistics-based traffic analysis. In this paper, we propose a novel method to detect and resolve the packet out-of-order and retransmission problem in order to improve completeness and accuracy of the traffic identification. To prove the feasibility of the proposed method, we applied our method to a real traffic analysis system using statistical flow information, and compared the performance of the system with the selected 9 popular applications. The experiment showed maximum 4% of completeness growth in traffic bytes, which shows that the proposed method contributes to the analysis of heavy flow.

  • Most traffic congestion on a freeway occurs in the merge area, where conflicts between mainline traffic and on-ramp traffic are frequently generated. So far, research on the merge area has mainly dealt with free flow traffic and research on the congested traffic at the merge area is rare. This study investigates the relationships between mainline traffic and on-ramp traffic at three different segments of the merge area. For this purpose, new indicators based on such traffic variables as flow, speed, and density are used. The results show that a negative relationship exists between mainline and on-ramp flow. It is also found that the speed and the density of the right two lanes in the mainline traffic are significantly affected by the on-ramp flow. Based on the correlation analysis of the indicators, it is confirmed that the ramp influence area is the right two lanes of the freeway mainline. The revealed relationships between mainline and on-ramp traffic may help to analyze the capacity of the downstream freeway segment of the merging area in congested traffic. The findings of this studyalso provide a basis to develop a model that estimates the merge traffic volume in congested traffic, which is neither theoretically nor empirically sound in most other traffic flow models developed so far.

  • Weather condition has effect on traffic condition, but there is a lack of research between weather and traffic condition. So, in this study analyzes speed variation according to rainfall intensity in national highway provincial road. The results of the analysis, average speed is reduced about 3.2%. But average speed decrease by maximum 8.8% when traffic volume is below 200vph per direction. Because relatively, free flow traffic speed has greatly deceased according to rainfall intensity in provincial road. Also in this study estimates of speed reduction model according to rainfall and performs the statistical verification. Estimated speed reduction model's slops are gradual when rainfall increased, because average speed is reduced by rainfall when free flow.

  • This paper is about the research to maintain and enhance the flow of data of the wireless traffic control. Various types of burst traffic that were found at TCP window flow control have been removed or mitigated using the two-way traffic control. Currently, TCP ACK Compression problem appears during the transmission of the wireless communication control channel because the queues are mostly located at the end system. Therefore, in this paper, the periodic bursty characterist of the source IP queue wilt be analyzed to predict the maximum value of queues. And then the prediction tool will be applied to wireless communication traffic control to handle symmetric traffic as to increase the throughput and improve the performance.

  • Marine transportation system plays an important role in maintaining and promoting economic activities among countries. The accurate understanding of marine traffic flows are necessary for the further advancement of marine transportation system. While many existing researches on marine traffic have been conducted mainly on the basis of statistical analysis using traffic data, ship's traffic flow simulation model was developed in this study. A collision avoidance algorithm was conducted with categorizing of traffic factors such as ship's length and speed. The developed model was also verified by a simulation process.

  • Traffic flow which is prescribed under previous traffic effect/access act is analyzed by traffic volume, V/C, mean speed on road and LOS on the intersection. These indexes based on analytical method can not consider stochastic characteristics of traffic flow. Moreover it is hard to analyze traffic flow visually in whole traffic effect area because only individual road and intersections are targeted. In this study, it is devised to show traffic flow analysis method within traffic effect area visually applying microscopic-simulation by car-following theory, and then based on this, effect analyze ways are studied according to space range plan, improvement measure establishment and etc. To execute this study, effect area is set up using V/C, and the change of traffic current around development area is analyzed using microscopic-simulation program.

  • With the rapid increase of vehicles, various traffic problems, e.g., car crashes, traffic congestions, etc, frequently occur in the road environment of the urban area. To overcome such traffic problems, intelligent transportation systems have been developed with a traffic flow analysis. The traffic flow, which can be estimated by the vehicle counting scheme, plays an important role to manage and control the urban traffic. In this paper, we propose a novel vehicle counting method based on predicted centers of each lane. Specifically, the centers of each lane are detected by using the accumulated movement of vehicles and its filtered responses. The number of vehicles, which pass through extracted centers, is counted by checking the closest trajectories of the corresponding vehicles. Various experimental results on road CCTV videos demonstrate that the proposed method is effective for vehicle counting.
