TRAVTEK EVALUATION MODELING STUDY

This report describes a modeling study that was performed to extrapolate, from the TravTek operational test data, a set of system wide benefits and performance values for a wider-scale deployment of a TravTek-like system. A model was produced whose driver and in-vehicle system parameters were representative of the behavior that was quantified by various TravTek field tests in Orlando. In the second part of the study, a coded traffic network was created with properties that were representative of the traffic conditions observed in Orlando during the course of the TravTek operational field test.
