Fuzzy modeling and control for a road section

Abstract

When dealing with road traffic modeling, one problem is given by the difficulty of modeling the dynamics of a vehicle/group of vehicles from the time it enters a road section until it reaches the end. Besides, road traffic, seen as a complex dynamic process, is difficult to be characterized by fixed values. Therefore, this paper proposes a solution using fuzzy logic control, which by analyzing the occupancy of a section, establishes a number of linguistic features. For modeling the behavior of the road section the macroscopic approach is used.
