Type-2 Fuzzy Multiagent Traffic Signal Control

This paper proposes a controller design for urban traffic networks. The growing demand for faster transportation has led to heavy congestion in road traffic networks, necessitating the need for traffic-responsive intelligent signal control systems. The developed signal control system based on uncertain information of the environment must be capable of determining the green time that minimizes the overall delay. The proposed traffic controller is based on distributed multi-agent approach which is very efficient considering the uncertainties and parameter variations. The effectiveness of the proposed control method is verified by comparing the obtained result with that of a fixed time controller.
