  • In this paper, we developed a traffic signal control system for emergency situations that can minimize loss of property and life by actively controlling traffic signals in a certain section in response to emergency situations. When the emergency vehicle terminal transmits an emergency signal including identification information and GPS information, the surrounding image is obtained from the camera, and the object is analyzed based on deep learning to output object information having information such as the location, type, and size of the object. After generating information tracking this object and detecting the signal system, the signal system is switched to emergency mode to identify and track the emergency vehicle based on the received GPS information, and to transmit emergency control signals based on the emergency vehicle's traveling route. It is a system that can be transmitted to a signal controller. This system prevents the emergency vehicle from being blocked by an emergency control signal that is applied first according to an emergency signal, thereby minimizing loss of life and property due to traffic obstacles.

  • Humans and various devices are interconnected using the Internet of Things and are used in various ways. In this study, a synchronization control system with remote locations was constructed using ICT, and a signal system for pedestrians was implemented using the system. PLC circuits were used to implement controllers, through which wireless control signal transmission and reception, LED lamp emission control, and power control were performed. It was confirmed that signal synchronization from the main controller to the remote sub-controller was possible by establishing a controller and pedestrian traffic light system, and lamp signal synchronization of the pedestrian traffic light system installed on both sides of the road was implemented. As a result, it was confirmed that 1:1 remote control or 1:N remote group control was possible, and this result can be used in various fields.

  • An automatic point traffic control method is recommended for more idealistic traffic flow over coarse road netowrks. The automatic control apparatus recommended, consists of a transceiver, amplifier, digital-to-analog converter, signal light controller for emergency and steady state, and digital counter as monitor. The transmitter sends a signal to the target vy means of Microwave-FM-CW and a diode detector picks up the echo signal. Thus the operation of the entire system will be carried out through an open loop state. Some factors necessary for an ideal detector system are rapid response, longevity and stability. An analytical method of the Doppler effect substitutes the conventional frequency deviation into the amplitude of detector output. The changing rate of amplitude is proportional to the voltage of the detector output. Some induced formula from Maxwell's radiation field theory ensures this new method, and, new method, and proves the fact with an experimental data presentation. Stability depends upon Klystron as an oscillator and a diode as a detector. the transceiver installation affects on the response and sensitivity of the system. In accordance with the detector output, several targets are easily classified by amplitudes on the scope. The traffic flow, i.e., target movement which is analyzed by the amplitude method, is shown through the scope and indicates it on the digital counter. The best efficiency for the amplitude analysis can be attained through use of an antenna having the highest sensitivity.

  • In this paper, a fuzzy traffic controller using genetic algorithms is presented. Conventional fuzzy traffic controllers use membership functions generated by humans. However, this approach does not guarantee the optimal solution to design the fuzzy controller. Genetic algorithm is a good problem solving method requiring domain-specific knowledge that is often heuristic. To find fuzzy membership functions showing good performance, a fitness function must be defined. However it's not easy in traffic control to define such a function as a numeric expression. Thus, we use simulation approach, namely, the fitness value of a solution is determined by use of a performance measure that is obtained by traffic simulator. The proposed method outperforms the conventional fuzzy controllers.

  • In this paper, we will make a model that finds optimal phase for each crossroad. When the traffic volume, traffic capacity, and the lane width of every direction is given for each crossroad, we aim to find the most efficient phase. We established an evaluation function that evaluates the efficiency of each phase using the values of the average waiting time in one direction, the average delay time, the standard deviation of the delay time, and the average delay time in each direction. The time allocation to optimize a phase pattern can be obtained by using the gradient decent method. Through this research, we hope to decrease the waiting time in transporation, thus improving the overall traffic condition in cities.

  • Unlike the past, modern urban intersections have dramatic growth in size and utilizations. As a result, continual traffic signal control is essential. Hence the individual or regional electrical blackout may bring about uncontrollable traffic congestion. Late summer of 2011 a regional blackout brought about traffic nightmare not including time and revenue loss associated with this disaster. Due to this disaster our national police agency and other government agencies are in process of introducing an UPS (uninterruptible power supply) system into essential intersections. This study estimates the power consumption necessary to sustain at least 2 continuous hours for a standard four-legged intersection. Prototype was studied using these standards. The field experiment of prototype showed positive results and was able to meet standard guidelines set forth. Prototype tested was able to meet standards in medium to large capacity of traffic size.

  • Korea, the traffic and transportation problems are significant because private cars are increasing constantly. Therefore, it is imperative to improve traffic condition so as to solve the problems such as traffic congestion and accidents which may occur due to the increase of vehicles in a limited area through the signal control. However, the current operating system for traffic control cannot provide car users the optimal signal but it generates a time delay of vehicles, traffic congestions etc. In this paper, we propose and implement the system based on V2X based automatic controller, which reduces the waste of time and the driver's psychological stress on the road intersection.
