The collective of highly reliable traffic data is necessary for traffic signal control. This study is to test application of RTMS sensor to traffic signal control. In order to find out the possibility of its application th traffic signal control, 5 types of experiments were performed. The major findings are as follows ; -The detection are a has been changing according to degree and gain. -At the results of experiments for interference are a measure, Degree 60 is stable condition. -At the results of reliability test for volume and speed. the error rate decreases as speed increases and that of Zone 1 is lower than that of Zone 3. -Two modes are set up for reliability test of traffic volume. It founds that the detection reliability of the stopped vehicles are higher than that of the passing vehicles at sidefire-intersection mode. It founds that the results are vice-versa at sidefire-highway mode. Conclusively, this sensor cannot directly apply to colection of traffic data for traffic signal control. However, this sensor can be substituted for a loop detector which is used popularly for signal control, and freeway traffic control if above faults are made up.

In case of an emergency on a busy road of a city, drivers should make way for special vehicles such as police cars, fire engines, or ambulance as soon as possible. If road infrastructures recognize the movements of special vehicles, and transfer alert message to traffic signal controllers and normal cars through wireless network such as WAVE or TPEG, normal cars can prepare to make way in advance. As a result, it help special vehicles move faster. In this paper, we install a roof mark on the roof of a special vehicle, detect the mark through a mark recognition algorithm which includes perspective transformation, and get the inner information by decoding the digital pattern on it. The experiment results show that mark can be recognized 100% and 93.3% of inner digital data of the mark can be recognized, when the size of a mark is larger than $88cm{\times}88cm$ and the mark moves at a speed of 50km/s.

Existing arterial link travel time estimation methods relying on either aggregate point-based or individual section-based traffic data have their inherent limitations. This paper demonstrates the utility of data fusion for improving arterial link travel time estimation. If the data describe traffic conditions, an operator wants to know whether the situations are going better or worse. In addition, some traffic information providing strategies require predictions of what would be the values of traffic variables during the next time period. In such situations, it is necessary to use a prediction algorithm in order to extract the average trends in traffic data or make short-term predictions of the control variables. In this research. a multi-step ahead prediction algorithm using Data fusion was developed to predict a link travel time. The algorithm performance were tested in terms of performance measures such as MAE (Mean Absolute Error), MARE(mean absolute relative error), RMSE (Root Mean Square Error), EC(equality coefficient). The performance of the proposed algorithm was superior to the current one-step ahead prediction algorithm.

In this paper, we use a LiDAR sensor and an image camera to detect a left-turning waiting vehicle in two ways, unlike the existing image-type or loop-type left-turn detection system, and a left-turn traffic signal corresponding to the waiting length of the left-turning lane. A system that can efficiently assign a system is introduced. For the LiDAR signal transmitted and received by the LiDAR sensor, the left-turn waiting vehicle is detected in real time, and the image by the video camera is analyzed in real time or at regular intervals, thereby reducing unnecessary computational processing and enabling real-time sensitive processing. As a result of performing a performance test for 5 hours every day for one week with an intersection simulation using an actual signal processor, a detection rate of 99.9%, which was improved by 3% to 5% compared to the existing method, was recorded. The advantage is that 99.9% of vehicles waiting to turn left are detected by the LiDAR sensor, and even if an intentional omission of detection occurs, an immediate response is possible through self-correction using the video, so the excessive waiting time of vehicles waiting to turn left is controlled by all lanes in the intersection. was able to guide the flow of traffic smoothly. In addition, when applied to an intersection in the outskirts of which left-turning vehicles are rare, service reliability and efficiency can be improved by reducing unnecessary signal costs.

Traffic represents one of the largest sources of primary air pollutants in urban area. As a consequence. numerous abatement strategies are being pursued to decrease the ambient concentration of pollutants. A characteristic of most of the these strategies is a requirement for accurate data on both the quantity and spatial distribution of emissions to air in the form of an atmospheric emission inventory database. In the case of traffic pollution, such an inventory must be compiled using activity statistics and emission factors for vehicle types. The majority of inventories are compiled using passive data from either surveys or transportation models and by their very nature tend to be out-of-date by the time they are compiled. The study of current trends are towards integrating urban traffic control systems and assessments of the environmental effects of motor vehicles. In this study, a methodology of motor vehicle emission calculation by using real-time traffic data was studied. A methodology for estimating emissions of CO at a test area in Seoul. Traffic data, which are required on a street-by-street basis, is obtained from induction loops of traffic control system. It was calculated speed-related mass of CO emission from traffic tail pipe of data from traffic system, and parameters are considered, volume, composition, average velocity, link length. And, the result was compared with that of a method of emission calculation by VKT(Vehicle Kilometer Travelled) of vehicles of category.

비접촉식 온도센서는 물체에서 방출하는 적외선 등의 복사신호를 열에너지로 전환하고 이를 다시 전기신호로 2차 에너지 변환하여 온도를 감지하는 센서로 인체 검지를 응용한 다양한 상품 및 교통, 방재, 빌딩 시스템 등의 분야에 널리 응용되고 있다. 비접촉식 적외선 센서는 열에너지를 전기에너지로 변환하는 방법에 따라 양자형과 열형으로 구분되며, 이중 양자형은 광전도나 광기전력 효과 등을 이용하여 감도 및 응답성이 우수하다는 장점을 지니고 있지만, 소자부를 80K 이하 온도로 유지시키는 냉각을 필요로 하므로 대형 제작이 불가피하고 그 용도가 제한적이다. 열형은 냉각이 필요 없고 소형으로 제작가능한 장점을 지니고 있어 써모 파일이나 초전체를 이용한 번용 센서가 보급되고 있다. 그러나 써모파일의 경우 출력되는 전기 신호가 미약하여 감도 및 응답성을 향상하기 위해 구조가 복잡하고, 특히 모터초퍼나 저항을 전압으로 변환시키는 전력기 등이 필요로 하는 단점을 지니고 있다. 따라서 이러한 문제점을 보완하기 위해 열전재료 박막을 이용한 적외선 센서를 개발하려는 노력이 진행중에 있다. 열전박막을 이용한 적외선 센서는 열전재료의 Seebeck 현상을 이용하여 열에너지에서 전기에너지의 변환이 자가발전으로 이루어져 offset과 외부 바이어스를 필요로 하지 않는다. 또한 작은 온도 변화에도 그 감도와 응답성이 높고, 출력신호가 커서 증폭기 등이 불필요한 장점을 지니고 있다. 특히 초전형 센서가 상온에서도 기판에 대한 열 확산을 제어해야 하는 문제점을 갖는 반면, 열전박막형 적외선 센서는 고온에서도 안정된 출력 신호를 얻을 수 있어 그 활용 온도 범위가 크게 확대될 것으로 기대된다. 본 실험에서는 우수한 열전특성을 갖는 (Bi1-xSbx)2Te3 박막을 얻기 위해 열팽창계수가 작고 알칼리 원소가 0.3% 이하로 포함되어 있는 corning glass(# 7059)를 기판으로 사용하였다. 또한 최적의 열전특성을 나타내는 조성을 실험적으로 구하기 위해 (Bi0.2Sbx)2Te3 조성의 합금 타？ 위에 Bi2Te3 및 Sb2Te3 chip을 올려놓고 그 면적을 변화시켜 다양한 조성의 열전박막을 증착하였다. 열전박막의 증착시 산화와 오염에 의한 열전특성 변화를 최소화하기 위해 초기진공도를 1$\times$10-6 Torr로 하였으며, Ar 가스를 흘려주어 2$\times$102 Torr 의 증착진공도를 유지하였다. 열전박막을 증착하기 전에 기판을 10분간 200W의 출력으로 RF 처리하였으며, 30$0^{\circ}C$에서 33 /sec의 속도로 (Bi1-xSbx)2Te3 박막을 증착하였다. 이와 같이 제조된 (Bi1-xSbx)2Te3 박막의 미세구조를 SEM으로 관찰하고 EDS로 조성을 분석하였으며, XRD를 이용하여 결정성을 관찰하였다. 또한 (Bi1-xSbx)2Te3 박막의 Seebeeck 계수 및 전기비저항을 측정하고 증착된 박막조성, 결정상, 미세구조와 열전특성간의 상관관계를 고찰하였다.
