Abstract

Abstract : In order to optimize the existing control subarea division methods, a new dynamic subarea division method based on node importance evaluating is proposed for regional coordinated control. Firstly, considering the characteristics of road network and traffic flow between adjacent intersections, correlation degree model is established by calculating the correlation coefficients of traffic flow, signal cycle, and traffic state. Then, road traffic network is abstracted into a network topology structure graph. From the global perspective of the road network, intersection position information and the importance contribution between adjacent intersections are taken into account, and the correlation degrees between adjacent intersections are taken as the edge weights to construct intersection importance evaluation matrix. Finally, an actual road network is selected, and an improved Newman algorithm is employed to verify and analyze the method proposed in this paper. Results show that, compared with other methods, the control subarea division result of the new proposed method is more elaborate and more in line with the actual traffic flow characteristics. Moreover, dynamic subarea division can be realized according to the traffic characteristics of different periods, which can provide a good basis for the formulation of the signal control schemes in the next stage.
