Abstract

The present study presents the applications of a hierarchical fuzzy system in the traffic light system control process. In this paper a hierarchical fuzzy system was designed. This system is based on the fuzzy system for traffic lights control FS-TLC. The main advantage of the solution presented herein is a significant reduction of the number of defined rules. Additionally, owing to the use of hierarchical fuzzy systems, it is possible to greatly reduce the time required for computations and to reduce the use of memory in the systems designed. Also that systems can be significantly more effective in operation, and they allow a creation of faster controllers that may be implemented in the hardware architecture.
