ARTERIAL TRAFFIC-CONTROL SYSTEMS

SUCH TRAFFIC CHARACTERISTICS AS VOLUME, ROAD OCCUPANCY, OR VEHICLE SPEED ARE SENSED FOR BOTH OUTBOUND AND INBOUND TRAFFIC. THESE DATA LEAD TO THE SELECTION OF A PRECOMPUTED STRATEGIC PLAN OF THE SYSTEM CYCLE LENGTH, OFFSETS, AND SPLITS WHICH MATCHES THE CURRENT DEMAND AND TREND OF TRAFFIC, POSSIBLY FOR A PERIOD OF 10 MIN, AT THE END OF WHICH ANOTHER STRATEGIC SELECTION WILL BE MADE. ARTERIAL CONTROL FORMS THE BASIS OF MULTI-INTERSECTION SIGNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS. THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ARTERIAL TRAFFIC-CONTROL SYSTEMS IS DESCRIBED WITH STRONG EMPHASIS ON HARDWARDAE ASPECTS. /AUTHOR/
