71 results about "Saturation flow rate" patented technology

Saturation Flow Rate (SFR) is a measure of the maximum flow rate of traffic in a specific lane group on an approach to a signalized intersection. SFR is used extensively in planning and operational analysis, and design of signalized intersections.

Arbiter for an input buffered communication switch

An arbiter for a switch maintains a pair of counters for each flow of traffic at each input port: one counter (also called “first counter”) to indicate an ideal transfer of traffic, and another counter (also called “second counter”) to indicate the actual transfer of traffic. Both counters are incremented when traffic is received by the input port, and the second counter is decremented when a unit of traffic (such as a cell or packet) is about to be transmitted whereas the first counter is decremented in a fractional manner (relative to the unit of traffic) in each period of arbitration, based on available bandwidth. The arbiter selects one of the output ports (also called “winning output port”) of the switch, based at least partially on values of the two counters for each flow from the input port to one of the output ports, and generates a signal to approve transfer of traffic from the input port to the winning output port. In several embodiments, the above-described flow can be for either high priority traffic or for low priority traffic, and any bandwidth leftover from transferring high priority traffic is used in transferring low priority traffic. Specifically, the arbiter maintains additional counters for each port indicative of total bandwidth being used, and the additional counters are used to allocate leftover bandwidth in an iterative manner, until a flow from an input port to an output port is saturated, at which time the saturated flow is removed from iteration.

Correction method of bicycle influencing turning vehicle saturation flow rate at signal crossing

The invention discloses a correction method of bicycle impact on saturation volume rate of turning motor vehicles at a signalized intersection, which can be applied to calculating timing of signal control at the intersection. The correction method divides a conflict between bicycles and turning motor vehicles into two phases by studying different states of bicycles which cross the intersection and defines a conflict area; in the first stage, the gathered waiting bicycles during the red light period cross the intersection in the manner of bicycle groups with high density and low freedom, and the conflict is analyzed based on time occupation ratio of the conflict area by bicycles; in the second stage, bicycles arriving randomly at the intersection in a random manner with low density and high freedom, and the conflict is analyzed based on a crosscutting gap theory, and an influence coefficient of the bicycles on the saturation volume rate of turning motor vehicles is calculated. By applying the timing at intersection calculated by adopting the correction method of the bicycle impact on saturation volume rate of turning motor vehicles at a signalized intersection to the practice, the conflict between motor vehicles and non-motorized vehicles at the intersection can be relieved, traffic capacity of the intersection can be improved, and delay of motor vehicles at the intersection can be reduced.

The invention relates to a traffic overflow inhibition method based on high altitude video information. Compared with the prior art, the traffic overflow inhibition method based on the high altitude video information overcomes the defect that no automation inhibition method for solving the problem of traffic overflow exists in the prior art. The traffic overflow inhibition method based on the high altitude video information includes following steps: erecting a high altitude camera, and communicating the camera and a signal controller with an information center through a wired network or a wireless network; performing distance calibration on a camera image and actual distance of a road; setting overflow queuing length threshold value; calculating saturation flow and traffic capacity of a lane; calculating the maximum queuing length and saturation in each signal cycle of the lane; judging out a mapping relation of average increasing velocity and the saturation of the queuing length; forecasting a cycle reaching the overflow length threshold value; adjusting matching time of upstream and downstream signal lamps. The traffic overflow inhibition method based on the high altitude video information can grasp increasing and dissipating rules of the queuing length before the traffic overflow occurs, and forecasts an occurring cycle of the traffic overflow.
