Real-Time Incident-Responsive Signal Control Strategy under Partially Connected Vehicle Environment by Kancharla K. K. Chandan, Álvaro J. M. Seco, Ana M. C. Bastos Silva

“…The research in this paper utilized the vehicle information from the recent technological advancement in transportation systems, connected vehicles (CV), and loop-detector information for nonconnected vehicles (NCVs) and developed a novel algorithm to (1) control traffic signals for normal traffic conditions in the absence of incidents, (2) detect traffic incidents using CV/NCV information, and (3) control traffic signals during the occurrence and dissipation of incidents. All the 3 strategies were integrated into one algorithm, which runs as per the real-time traffic conditions, in the presence or absence of incidents. …”
