Connected Vehicle Based Dynamic All-Red Extension for Adaptive Signalized Intersections

This paper proposes a connected vehicle (CV) based dynamic all-red extension (DARE) framework for adaptive signalized intersections to avoid potential crashes caused by red-light running (RLR) behaviors. The conceptual structure consists of three components, i.e. CVs, road-side equipment (RSE), traffic control devices. Under the CV environment, vehicle trajectories and continuous vehicle running information could be obtained via vehicle-to-infrastructure and vehicle-to-vehicle communications. Under such advanced detection information for vehicles that approach to a signalized intersection, a mathematic model is built to predict the potential of RLR. As a comparison, the current approach of DARE at adaptive signalized intersections based on inductive loop detectors is presented as well. In the field experiments, vehicle trajectories collected by radar sensors were used to simulate the CV environment. Based on empirical measurements, results in terms of prediction rate, missing rate and false alarm rate show the merits of CV continuous trajectories in RLR prediction accuracy improvement, and thus to improve intersection safety.
