Abstract

This paper addresses the coordination of traffic-responsive traffic signal controllers using an iterative process called ALLONS-I. It determines an equilibrium set of control policies for traffic-responsive signal controllers on a traffic network. This iterative method is a dynamic adjustment process that is successful in converging to a set of coordinated traffic signals in some cases; its convergence properties are analyzed using a game-theoretic model. The result of this analysis is a proof of convergence for a specific class of traffic networks and traffic demand using a traffic-responsive signal control scheme like ALLONS-D.
