Cooperative Eco-Driving at Signalized Intersections in a Partially Connected and Automated Vehicle Environment
The State-of-the-art of Coordinated Ramp Control with Mixed Traffic Conditions
Ramp metering, a traditional traffic control strategy for conventional
vehicles, has been widely deployed around the world since the 1960s. On the
other hand, the last decade has witnessed significant advances in connected and
automated vehicle (CAV) technology and its great potential for improving
safety, mobility and environmental sustainability. Therefore, a large amount of
research has been conducted on cooperative ramp merging for CAVs only. However,
it is expected that the phase of mixed traffic, namely the coexistence of both
human-driven vehicles and CAVs, would last for a long time. Since there is
little research on the system-wide ramp control with mixed traffic conditions,
the paper aims to close this gap by proposing an innovative system architecture
and reviewing the state-of-the-art studies on the key components of the
proposed system. These components include traffic state estimation, ramp
metering, driving behavior modeling, and coordination of CAVs. All reviewed
literature plot an extensive landscape for the proposed system-wide coordinated
ramp control with mixed traffic conditions.Comment: 8 pages, 1 figure, IEEE INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS CONFERENCE
