Abstract

This paper is devoted to an actual problem: the optimization of traffic light to control on roadway intersection. In order to reduce the total delay of vehicles, minimize the queues at junctions and optimize traffic flow through signalized intersection a model of stochastic polling systems is proposed. On order to determine the most effective service disciplines a comparative analysis of two different service disciplines was conducted. Exhaustive and gated service disciplines were analyzed, compared and simulated for the purpose to choose the most effective one. The viability and efficiency of the proposed algorithm using computer simulation are also demonstrated. Moreover the possibility of using RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology in order to reduce the total delay of vehicles was analyzed.
