Systems and methods for increasing vehicular capacity in a transportation network

Abstract

The invention provides a system and method for improving vehicle traffic capacity in a traffic network, wherein the system includes at least one processing module, a receiving module and an executing module connected by communication. The receiving module and the execution module are communicably connected to the processing module respectively, wherein the receiving module receives a traffic signal about the traffic status of an intersection in the traffic network, and the processing module according to the The traffic signal generates a starting signal, and the execution module executes the starting signal to make the vehicle at the intersection start and subsequently pass through the intersection. In this way, the delay of the starting time of the preceding and following vehicles can be shortened, Even front and rear vehicles can be started at the same time, so as to improve the ability of passing vehicles at the intersection, thereby alleviating traffic pressure.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the traffic field, in particular to a system and a method for improving vehicle traffic capacity in a traffic network. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the development of the automobile industry and the continuous improvement of people's economic income, private cars have begun to enter thousands of households, and are increasingly changing people's daily travel methods and lifestyles. However, while private cars bring convenience to people's travel, they also lead to problems such as increasing traffic pressure in cities. Therefore, how to solve the problem of traffic pressure in cities is a difficult problem that modern society must face. [0003] In the current traffic system, in order to ensure traffic safety, most of the intersections in the city are equipped with traffic lights to indicate the traffic status of vehicles. For example, when the traffic lights are displayed in a red state, all vehicles are...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Although vehicles with automatic start-stop modules have the above advantages, the configuration of automatic start-stop modules on vehicles further reduces the traffic capacity of this intersection

Specifically, before the vehicle makes a starting action, the engine needs to be restarted. Usually, this action is made by the driver of the vehicle after observing the starting action of the vehicle in front. It can be understood that restarting The generator also takes a certain amount of time, which further prolongs the delay of the starting time of the front and rear vehicles, thereby further reducing the traffic capacity of the intersection
