• Abstract:
  In this project, a traffic data collection system based-on the iDEN wireless network has ; been developed, lab tested and preliminarily tested in the field. The objective of the ; system is to provide a cost-effective and easy-to-maintain system that could still reliably ; provide traffic data over the wireless link. ; The project team developed an arterial performance measurement method that is based on ; the signal infrastructure data collected at PT2 Lab, U.C. Berkeley. The performance of the ; proposed model is illustrated by using a simulation study. The six-signal simulation ; network covers both heavily congested and light traffic intersections. The proposed ; model works well at both the intersection level and the arterial level. Estimation errors of ; travel time, number of stops and travel time reliability are insignificant.
