Highway Entrance Ramp Control System Research Based on Fuzzy Logic Algorithm

Juan WANG, Feng BAO, Zhen-hui REN

Abstract


Highway traffic problems have attracted many attentions around china. In all of the highway control methods, the entrance ramp control is both the most widely used form, and one of the most effective control forms. According to the fuzzy logic control theory, this thesis designs a highway entrance ramp control system to control the vehicles to access to the highway timely and moderately, for alleviating traffic, improving traffic, avoiding traffic accident, improving road capacity and service level. It uses RTMS (remote traffic microwave sensors) to collect highway traffic information. After the analog to digital conversion, those digital data are transmitted to the fuzzy controller by MC35i module wirelessly. Through the simulation result of MATLAB based on fuzzy algorithm, the feasible entrance ramp control scheme has been got.

We have provided the online access of all issues and papers to the indexing agencies (as given on journal web site). It’s depend on indexing agencies when, how and what manner they can index or not. Hence, we like to inform that on the basis of earlier indexing, we can’t predict the today or future indexing policy of third party (i.e. indexing agencies) as they have right to discontinue any journal at any time without prior information to the journal. So, please neither sends any question nor expects any answer from us on the behalf of third party i.e. indexing agencies.Hence, we will not issue any certificate or letter for indexing issue. Our role is just to provide the online access to them. So we do properly this and one can visit indexing agencies website to get the authentic information. Also: DOI is paid service which provided by a third party. We never mentioned that we go for this for our any journal. However, journal have no objection if author go directly for this paid DOI service.
