Evaluation of Route Guidance Strategies Based on Vehicle-Infrastructure Integration Under Incident Conditions

摘要: As an individual driver, having a route guidance system that provides the shortest path based on distance or alternative during incident condition can be extremely useful. Even though it is more desirable to use travel times in providing guidance, they are not readily available for every roadway segment. With Vehicle Infrastructure Integration (VII) initiative, anticipated near future vehicles equipped with VII could collect and transfer such information other transportation management system. Thus, travel-time real-time through VII. System-level potentials of were explored by evaluating various strategies within environment. A simulation framework was developed representing VII-enabled virtual world, evaluated factors, including market penetration VII-equipped vehicles, congestion leve...
