PURPOSES : This study was initiated to estimate expressway traffic congestion costs by using Vehicle Detection System (VDS) data. METHODS : The overall methodology for estimating expressway traffic congestion costs is based on the methodology used in a study conducted by a study team from the Korea Transport Institute (KOTI). However, this study uses VDS data, including conzone speeds and volumes, instead of the volume delay function for estimating travel times. RESULTS : The expressway traffic congestion costs estimated in this study are generally lower than those observed in KOTI's method. The expressway lines that ranked highest for traffic congestion costs are the Seoul Ring Expressway, Gyeongbu Expressway, and the Youngdong Expressway. Those lines account for 64.54% of the entire expressway traffic congestion costs. In addition, this study estimates the daily traffic congestion costs. The traffic congestion cost on Saturdays is the highest. CONCLUSIONS : This study can be thought of as a new trial to estimate expressway traffic congestion costs by using actual traffic data collected from an entire expressway system in order to overcome the limitations of associated studies. In the future, the methodology for estimating traffic congestion cost is expected to be improved by utilizing associated big-data gathered from other ITS facilities and car navigation systems.

본 연구에서는 끼어들기 위반단속시스템 개발을 위한 교통정체판정방법에 대한 실험적 연구결과를 제시하였다. 해당 정체판정 방법은 정체를 검지하여 끼어들기 위반단속시스템의 최적 구동기준을 결정하는데 목적이 있다. ITS 분야에서 일반적으로 정체판정은 구간통행속도를 기준으로 한다. 그러나 영상검지 방식적용 시 속도오차 등으로 인해 정체판정의 오류가 높게 나타날 수 있으며, 본 연구에서는 현장실험을 통해 속도와 점유율을 종합적으로 고려한 방식을 제시하였다. 현장실험 결과 영상검지체계 기반의 끼어들기위반 단속시스템에서 정체판정 기준으로 속도의 경우 20km/h, 점유율의 경우 60% 이상의 조건을 적용할 경우 실제 정체상황과 같은 결과를 얻을 수 있었고, 정확도를 높일 수 있었다.

Recently, road traffic congestion is becoming a serious urban phenomenon, leading to massive adverse impacts on the ecology and economy. Therefore, solving this problem has drawn public attention throughout the world. One new promising solution is to take full advantage of vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). In this study, we propose a new traffic congestion detection and quantification method based on vehicle clustering and fuzzy assessment in VANET environment. To enhance real-time performance, this method collects traffic information by vehicle clustering. The average speed, road density, and average stop delay are selected as the characteristic parameters for traffic state identification. We use a comprehensive fuzzy assessment based on the three indicators to determine the road congestion condition. Simulation results show that the proposed method can precisely reflect the road condition and is more accurate and stable compared to existing algorithms.

도로상에서 발생하는 교통 혼잡비용은 지역 간 도로 보다는 도심부 내에서 비중 있게 발생하며, 이는 전체 혼잡비용의 약 63.39%를 차지하고 있다. 따라서, 교통혼잡비용의 절감을 위해서는 도심부의 교통 혼잡을 해소하는 것이 중요하다. 도심부의 교통 혼잡은 반복정체와 비반복정체로 구분되며, 비반복 정체를 신속하고 정확하게 검지하는 것이 교통혼잡의 해소에 있어 무엇보다 중요하다. 그러나 돌발상황 검지에 관한 연구는 대부분 연속류를 대상으로 수행되어 왔다. 도심부 단속류 도로의 경우, 신호 교차로 주정차 차량 등 다양한 변수가 존재하기 때문에 연속류에 적용되는 돌발상황 검지 알고리즘을 수정없이 적용하기에 무리가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 도심부 단속류 도로를 대상으로 수집된 GPS 기반의 차량궤적 데이터에 인공신경망을 적용하여 돌발상황검지 모형을 구축하였다. 제안된 모형의 정확도 검증 결과, 돌발상황 검지율 46.15%, 오보율 25.00%가 도출되었다. 이러한 결과는 단속류를 대상으로 하는 초기 연구 결과로서 의미가 있다. 또한 내비게이션 장치와 같은 차량 궤적 데이터만을 활용하여 비반복정체를 검지 할 수 있는 가능성을 제시 했다는 것에 의미를 찾을 수 있을 것이다.

This paper investigates congestion detection and control strategies for multi-path traffic (CDCM) diss emination in lifetime-constrained wireless sensor networks. CDCM jointly exploits packet arrival rate, succ essful packet delivery rate and current buffer status of a node to measure the congestion level. Our objec tive is to develop adaptive traffic rate update policies that can increase the reliability and the network lif etime. Our simulation results show that the proposed CDCM scheme provides with good performance.

The role of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) is to efficiently manipulate the traffic flow and reduce the cost in logistics by using the state of the art technologies which combine telecommunication, sensor, and control technology. Especially, the hardware part of ITS is rapidly adapting to the up-to-date techniques in GPS and telematics to provide essential raw data to the controllers. However, the software part of ITS needs more sophisticated techniques to take care of vast amount of on-line data to be analyzed by the controller for their decision makings. In this paper, the authors develop a traffic congestion prediction model based on several different parameters from the sensory data captured in the Vehicle Detection System (VDS). This model uses the neural network technology in analyzing the traffic flow and predicting the traffic congestion in the designated area. This model also validates the results by analyzing the errors between actual traffic data and prediction program.

인공 지능이 발전함에 따라 예측 시스템은 우리의 삶에 필수적인 기술 중 하나로 자리를 잡았다. 이러한 기술의 성장에도 불구하고, 21세기 사거리 교통 체증은 계속해서 문제 되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 Conv-LSTM(: Convolutional-Long Short-Term Memory) 알고리즘을 이용한 사거리 교통 체증 예측 시스템을 제안한다. 제안한 시스템은 교통 체증이 발생하는 사거리에 시간대별 교통 정보를 학습한 데이터를 모델링 한다. 시간의 흐름에 따라 기록된 교통량 데이터로 교통 체증을 예측하며. 예측된 결과를 기반으로 사거리 교통 신호를 제어하고, 일정한 교통량으로 유지한다. VDS(: Vehicle Detection System)센서를 활용하여 도로 혼잡도 데이터를 정의하고, 교통을 원활하게 하기 위하여 각각의 교차로를 Conv-LSTM 알고리즘기반 네트워크 시스템으로 구성하였다.

Traffic congestion is a severe problem in many modern cities around the world. Real-time and accurate traffic congestion identification can provide the advanced traffic management systems with a reliable basis to take measurements. The most used data sources for traffic congestion are loop detector, GPS data, and video surveillance. Video based traffic monitoring systems have gained much attention due to their enormous advantages, such as low cost, flexibility to redesign the system and providing a rich information source for human understanding. In general, most existing video based systems for monitoring road traffic rely on stationary cameras and multiple vehicle tracking method. However, most commonly used multiple vehicle tracking methods are lack of effective track initiation schemes. Based on the motion of the vehicle usually obeys constant velocity model, a novel vehicle recognition method is proposed. The state of recognized vehicle is sent to the GM-PHD filter as birth target. In this way, we relieve the insensitive of GM-PHD filter for new entering vehicle. Combining with the advanced vehicle detection and data association techniques, this multiple vehicle tracking method is used to identify traffic congestion. It can be implemented in real-time with high accuracy and robustness. The advantages of our proposed method are validated on four real traffic data.

Information and communication technology (ICT) is a promising solution for mitigating road traffic congestion. ICT allows road users and vehicles to be managed based on real-time road status information. In Tanzania, traffic congestion causes losses of TZS 655 billion per year. The main objective of this study was to develop an optimal approach for integrating real-time road information (RRI) to mitigate traffic congestion. Our research survey focused on three cities that are highly affected by traffic congestion, i.e., Arusha, Mwanza, and Dar es Salaam. The results showed that ICT is not yet utilized fully to solve road traffic congestion. Thus, we established a possible approach for Tanzania based on an analysis of road traffic data provided by organizations responsible for road traffic management and road users. Furthermore, we evaluated the available road information management techniques to test their suitability for use in Tanzania. Using the floating car data technique, fuzzy logic was implemented for real-time traffic level detection and decision making. Based on this solution, we propose a RRI system architecture, which considers the effective utilization of readily available communication technology in Tanzania.

In this paper, we introduce and analyze a feedback control model of TCP/AQM dynamics. Then, we propose the Pro-active Queue Management (PAQM) mechanism, which can provide proactive congestion avoidance and control using an adaptive congestion indicator and a control function for wide range of traffic environments. The PAQM stabilizes the queue length around a desired level while giving smooth and low packet loss rates independent of the traffic load level under a wide range of traffic environment. The PAQM outperforms other AQM algorithms such as Random Early Detection (RED) [1] and PI-controller [2]
