Abstract
In this paper, a new lattice hydrodynamic model (LH model) of traffic flow under consideration of reaction time of drivers and a corresponding feedback control scheme are proposed. Based on the model, stability analysis is conducted through linear stability analysis of transfer function. The obtained phase diagram indicates that the reaction time of driver can affect the instability region of traffic flow. Under the action of a feedback control, the unstable region is shrunken to reach suppressing jams. The numerical simulations are performed to validate the effect of reaction time of driver in the new LH model. The study results confirm that the reaction time of driver significantly affects the unstability of traffic system, and the feedback control can suppress traffic jams. Furthermore, it is found that the traffic system from the chaotic traffic state to periodic steady one is successfully realizing the control of traffic system.
