Evaluating Safety with Automated Vehicles at Signalized Intersections: Application of Adaptive Cruise Control in Mixed Traffic

Conference Arvin, Ramin ; Khattak, Asad ; Rios Torres, Jackeline

Automated Vehicles (AV) can potentially improve the performance of transportation system by reducing human errors and enhancing mobility and safety. In lower levels of automation, humans are still controlling the vehicle and receiving some advisory information regarding their surrounding environment. This paper investigates the safety impact of low and high levels of AVs, and their interaction with conventional human-driven vehicles at intersections. In order to enhance our understanding of the future interactions between conventional vehicles with AVs, we developed a framework to simulate the mixed traffic environment. Different market penetration scenarios are simulated using VENTOS (VEhicular NeTwork Open Simulator) software.more »« less

Investigating the Impact of Connected Vehicle Market Share on the Performance of Reinforcement-Learning Based Traffic Signal Control

Technical Report Aziz, H M Abdul ; Wang, Hong ; Young, Stanley ; ...

We aim to understand and explore the performance of reinforcement learning based signal control algorithms in a mixed environment with less than 100% market share of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs). Within a simulation environment, we have considered partial connectivity—less than 100% market share of CAVs—in the network and investigated the impact on the performance of the signal control algorithm. Two test networks including a four-intersection arterial in Lankershim Boulevard, California and a portion of downtown Springfield, Illinois with 20 intersections. The first network is calibrated in the micro-simulator PTV Vissim with the US DOT provided NGSIM datasets. The resultsmore »« less

Suitability of Synthetic Driving Profiles from Traffic Micro-Simulation for Real-World Energy Analysis: Preprint

Conference Hou, Yunfei ; Wood, Eric ; Burton, Evan ; ...

A shift towards increased levels of driving automation is generally expected to result in improved safety and traffic congestion outcomes. However, little empirical data exists to estimate the impact that automated driving could have on energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. In the absence of empirical data on differences between drive cycles from present day vehicles (primarily operated by humans) and future vehicles (partially or fully operated by computers) one approach is to model both situations over identical traffic conditions. Such an exercise requires traffic micro-simulation to not only accurately model vehicle operation under high levels of automation, but alsomore »« less

Cooperative and Integrated Vehicle and Intersection Control for Energy Efficiency (CIVIC-E²)

Journal Article Hou, Yunfei ; Seliman, Salaheldeen M. S. ; Wang, Enshu ; ... - IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems

Recent advances in connected vehicle technologies enable vehicles and signal controllers to cooperate and improve the traffic management at intersections. This paper explores the opportunity for cooperative and integrated vehicle and intersection control for energy efficiency (CIVIC-E ²) to contribute to a more sustainable transportation system. We propose a two-level approach that jointly optimizes the traffic signal timing and vehicles' approach speed, with the objective being to minimize total energy consumption for all vehicles passing through an isolated intersection. More specifically, at the intersection level, a dynamic programming algorithm is designed to find the optimal signal timing by explicitly consideringmore »« less

Optimal Control of Connected and Automated Vehicles at Roundabouts: An Investigation in a Mixed-Traffic Environment

Conference Zhao, Liuhui ; Malikopoulos, Andreas A. ; Rios-Torres, Jackeline

Connectivity and automation in vehicles provide the most intriguing opportunity for enabling users to better monitor transportation network conditions and make better operating decisions to improve safety and reduce pollution, energy consumption, and travel delays. This paper investigates the implications of optimally coordinating vehicles that are wirelessly connected to each other in roundabouts to achieve a smooth traffic flow. We apply an optimization framework and an analytical solution that allows optimal coordination of vehicles for merging in such traffic scenario. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is validated through simulation and it is shown that fully coordinated vehicles reduce totalmore »« less
