The behavior of traffic system controlled by traffic lights on a single lane is presented using the optimal velocity model. The effect of different traffic light control stategies on the traffic flow is discussed using three different strategies, i.e. the synchronized, green wave, and random offset strategies. The flow-density diagrams are analyzed using these strategies. It is found that the saturation of the flow accurs at the critical density, which depends on the cycle time of the traffic and the strategy being used. On the other hand, the value of saturated flow does not depend on the cycle time or on the strategies. |
