[0015] Reference Figure 12 An embodiment of the present invention provides a signal timing method for intersections where buses and passengers pass through continuously, characterized by comprising the following steps: S1: Obtain the intersection based on passenger transfer traffic characteristics. i The main routes for passengers to cross the street provide a basis for intersection signal timing; S2: Based on passengers at the intersection i The requirement for safe and continuous passage is met with corresponding phase constraints, among which, the intersection i The time for each phase is greater than or equal to the sum of the corresponding pedestrian green light time and crossing time; S3: Based on the bus at the intersection i The requirement for continuous passage is met with corresponding phase constraints.

[0016] Specifically, 1. Passenger Convenience Transfer Analysis To address the issue of how to meet passengers' needs for safe and rapid transfers, this paper first analyzes the traffic characteristics of passenger transfers at intersections, and then uses signal timing methods to achieve the goal of convenient passenger transfers.
[0017] Generally, passengers transferring to buses at intersections go to one of four bus stops. Figure 1 For example, the west-east direction is a major urban traffic corridor. Passengers who alight from buses at the west or east entrance of an intersection are less likely to return immediately after reaching the intersection; therefore, they primarily travel via... Figure 1 The path shown leads to the corresponding bus stop.
[0018] The characteristics of passenger transfer traffic were analyzed, and the main paths for passenger crossing the street were obtained, providing a basis for adjusting the signal timing scheme at intersections. First, by adjusting the phase timing, the safety of pedestrians in all directions can be ensured to cross the street. Then, by adjusting the phase sequence, continuous passage of passengers at the intersection can be achieved, reducing delay time at the intersection and enabling convenient access to the corresponding bus stops.
[0019] The main mechanism involves adjusting the cycle size to ensure sufficient crossing time for pedestrians in all directions; and adjusting the phase sequence appropriately to meet the needs of passengers for continuous passage at intersections. (Assuming passengers meet...) Figure 1 Based on the transfer traffic characteristics, and according to the phase sequence settings in the diagram, a green wave design for continuous passenger passage at intersections is implemented, constructing a green wave belt for continuous passenger crossing.
[0020] intersection i The time for each phase should be greater than or equal to the sum of the corresponding pedestrian green light time and crossing time. This leads to the following phase time constraints: (1) , , , They represent the intersections. i The green light times for pedestrians in the following phases are: F to E, D to C, B to A, and H to G. , , , They represent the intersections. i The time required for pedestrians to travel sequentially from F to E, D to C, B to A, and H to G. , , , Indicates an intersection i Phase time for separate release of imports from the west, south, east, and north; , Indicates an intersection i Symmetrical release phase time for west-east straight and north-south straight traffic.
[0021] Unlike motor vehicles crossing intersections, pedestrian crossings have a certain width, allowing multiple passengers to enter the intersection simultaneously. Taking F to E as an example... , These represent the number of pedestrians from F to E, and the number of people who can enter the pedestrian walkway per second, respectively. The last passenger is located at... m Okay, number n The column is positioned at the intersection, as shown in the following formula.
[0022] (2) (3) Indicates an intersection i The time required for pedestrians from F to E to enter the crosswalk. Indicates an intersection i Depend on j arrive k The pedestrian green light time. The pedestrian green light time for each phase needs to meet the following constraints.
[0023] (4) Taking an east-west arterial road as an example, the pedestrian delay is minimized when the last passenger transferring between bus stops S2 and S6 can cross the street consecutively. This requires meeting certain constraints, with the start time of the green light for straight traffic at the west entrance as a reference point. The corresponding constraints are shown below.
[0024] (5) , They represent the intersections. i The time difference between the start time of the green light for straight-ahead traffic at the west entrance and the start time of the green light for straight-ahead traffic at the south entrance, and the time difference between the start time of the green light for straight-ahead traffic at the west entrance and the start time of the green light for straight-ahead traffic at the north entrance. , These represent the walking time for pedestrians to travel from F to D and from B to H, respectively.
[0025] 2. Analysis of continuous bus traffic 2.1 Conditions for continuous passage of public transport vehicles To ensure that buses stopping at bus stops S2 and S6 to pick up and drop off passengers can pass through multiple intersections continuously without stopping, the following constraints must be met.
[0026] (6) , These represent the arrival of buses at the intersection. i Intersection j The time of the west entrance parking line; , These represent buses passing through the intersection. i Intersection j The time of the west entrance parking line; , , They represent the intersections. k When the green light turns on for westbound straight traffic at intersections iEastbound straight traffic green light activation time, intersection j The green light turns on when the vehicle is traveling straight from east to west. , , , They represent the intersections. j Westbound to Eastbound Green Light Time and Intersection k Westbound to Eastbound Green Light Time and Intersection i Eastbound straight green light time, intersection j Green light time for eastbound straight traffic; , , , These represent buses departing from the intersection. i to the intersection j Travel time, from the intersection j to the intersection k Travel time, from the intersection k to the intersection j Travel time, from the intersection j to the intersection i The travel time.
[0027] 2.2 Objective Function To fully improve the coordination efficiency of two-way public transport on the main road, and to take into account the needs of public transport passengers, the objective function of equation (9) is established. Equations (7) and (8) are the expressions for the green wave bandwidth of public transport vehicles traveling from west to east and from east to west, respectively.
[0028] (7) (8) (9) in, , These represent the average number of passengers on buses traveling from west to east and from east to west, respectively.
[0029] To ensure stable green wave coordination control for buses, bus departure intervals... t D Should be in accordance with the cycle C The constraints of equation (10) are satisfied.
[0030] (10) in, These are natural numbers, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.
[0031] 2.3 Constraints on the continuous passage of public transport vehicles and transfer passengers In some traffic flow synchronization and coordination control models, the main focus is on the green wave bandwidth obtained by the synchronized traffic flow combination at the upstream intersection, neglecting the green wave bandwidth of a single traffic flow within the synchronized traffic flow combination. It is noteworthy that in the continuous passage design method for buses and passengers proposed in this paper, to ensure that bus passengers can cross the street continuously, the phase switches immediately after pedestrians reach the opposite side of the intersection. Therefore, from the perspective of the downstream intersection, the order in which passengers and buses in the same direction arrive at the stop line will lead to different results for the green wave bandwidth of the buses.
[0032] Scenario 1: When the bus arrives at the downstream intersection stop line before the last passenger transferring, the green wave coordination design method uses the bus as the object of coordination, so the green wave bandwidth of the bus can meet the demand. Scenario 2: When the bus arrives at the downstream intersection stop line after the last passenger transferring, the following constraints need to be met to ensure the green wave benefits for the bus. Assume there are three adjacent signalized intersections in the west-east direction, namely intersection I... i Intersection I j and intersection I k ,like Figure 3 As shown. Taking intersection I as an example. j The starting time is the moment when the green light of the west entrance phase turns on, and the constraints are as follows.
[0033] (11) In the formula, , They represent intersection I respectively j The travel time required for vehicles traveling straight through the west and east entrances; , They represent intersection I respectively j Phase timing of imports from the central and western regions, and from the eastern region; Represents intersection I j West-to-east direct phase time; , They represent the intersection I i and intersection I k Arrival at Intersection I j The time at the stop line.
[0034] 4. Instance Verification The Lvjing Road section in Chancheng District, Foshan City, Guangdong Province, is selected as a case study for signal timing optimization. The common period is [150, 170] s. The basic data for each intersection on the arterial road are as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the minimum green light time for the main road direction and basic information about the Fenjiang-Lvjing intersection are as follows: Figure 4 As shown.
[0035] There are 9 bus routes traveling from west to east, with a departure frequency of 20 minutes. There are 12 bus routes traveling from east to west, also with a departure frequency of 20 minutes. The speed of buses in both directions is 10 m / s. The pedestrian walking speed is 1 m / s. Westbound buses stop at platform S1 for 20 seconds, with 10 passengers disembarking at S1 and transferring at platform S4. Eastbound buses stop at platform S3 for 20 seconds, with 10 passengers disembarking at S3 and transferring at platform S2.
[0036] To compare the advantages and disadvantages of the method presented in this paper, we will compare the above examples with those using the MULTIBAND method and the TRANSYT software design scheme, respectively. Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown.
[0037] Depend on Figure 6 It is evident that the MULTIBAND design primarily utilizes a two-way green wave band for buses between intersections I1 and I3, with the widest green wave bandwidth among the three options, at 30%. Figure 5 As can be seen, the green wave bandwidth of the design scheme presented in this paper is the smallest, at 24%.
[0038] Simulation Experiment To further compare and illustrate the optimization effect of the proposed method, simulation experiments were conducted using VISSIM software on the design schemes of MULTIBAND, SYNCHRO, and TRANSYT, with a stop time fluctuation standard deviation of 2–20 s and random seeds of 38, 40, 42, 44, and 46. The simulation time was 7200 s and the number of simulations was 10. The average delay time and average number of stops for straight-going buses in the coordinated direction of each scheme were obtained as follows: Figure 8 As shown.
[0039] According to the VISSIM user manual, in the simulation, the number of stops for each bus does not include stops at bus stops. Delay is defined as the difference between the actual travel time and the theoretical travel time. Delay time does not include passenger boarding and alighting time at bus stops, but the time loss due to acceleration / deceleration when the bus enters / exits a stop is included in the delay time. Buses decelerate when entering a stop and accelerate when leaving, increasing travel time. Therefore, even if the average number of stops is 0, there is still a certain average delay time.
[0040] Depend on Figure 8It can be seen that the average delay and average number of stops for buses in the MULTIBAND scheme, TRANSYT scheme, and the scheme designed by the method in this paper all increase with the increase of the standard deviation of bus stop time fluctuation. The average delay of buses in the TRANSYT scheme is least affected by the standard deviation of bus stop time fluctuation, the average number of stops for buses in the MULTIBAND scheme is least affected by the standard deviation of bus stop time fluctuation, and the average delay and average number of stops for buses in the scheme designed by the method in this paper are most affected by the standard deviation of bus stop time fluctuation.
[0041] Compared with the MULTIBAND and TRANSYT schemes, the method proposed in this paper reduces the average delay of buses by at least 41.6% and 40.6%, and the average number of stops by at least 60.1% and 63.7%, respectively.
