Analysis of Vehicle Detection Rate for Bluetooth Traffic Sensors: A Case Study in Maryland and Delaware

摘要: One of the most important traffic parameters in Intelligent Transportation Systems applications is travel time. Most recently Bluetooth sensors have been successfully used for estimating time on freeway segments. In this new technology individual vehicles sampled at consecutive stations by recording unique address electronic devices that are equipped with and discoverable mode. Similar to other estimation methodologies, only captures a fraction stream. To understand average detection rate sensors, an extensive data collection effort was conducted several highways segments states Maryland Delaware. The volume reported inductive loop radar detectors as ground truth actual vehicle count. Statistics hourly case studies presented.
