论文摘要
利用连接和自动化车辆技术实现的车辆运动控制的准确性和一致性，我们提出了节奏控制（RC）方案，该方案允许车辆以预设节奏以无冲突的方式通过交叉路口。节奏使车辆能够以恒定的速度行驶而无需任何停止。 RC能够打破限制，即只能一次分配给非冲突的动作。它大大改善了自动流量的交叉控制控制的性能。此外，具有预定节奏的RC不需要动态控制车辆的强化计算工作，这可能会导致频繁的加速或减速。假设固定的车辆到达，我们进行了理论研究，以表明RC可以大大增加交叉路口的能力并减少车辆延迟。最后，在对称和非对称交叉口的固定和非平稳车辆到达的模拟中测试了RC的性能。
Leveraging the accuracy and consistency of vehicle motion control enabled by the connected and automated vehicle technology, we propose the rhythmic control (RC) scheme that allows vehicles to pass through an intersection in a conflict-free manner with a preset rhythm. The rhythm enables vehicles to proceed at a constant speed without any stop. The RC is capable of breaking the limitation that right of way can only be allocated to non-conflicting movements at a time. It significantly improves the performance of intersection control for automated traffic. Moreover, the RC with a predetermined rhythm does not require intensive computational efforts to dynamically control vehicles, which may possibly lead to frequent accelerations or decelerations. Assuming stationary vehicle arrivals, we conduct theoretical investigation to show that RC can considerably increase intersection capacity and reduce vehicle delay. Finally, the performance of RC is tested in the simulations with both stationary and non-stationary vehicle arrivals at both symmetric and asymmetric intersections.
