Abstract
The use of green light optimal speed advisory (GLOSA) systems is seen as a key application for achieving more environmentally friendly, time-efficient, and safer traffic flows at signalized intersections. In previous papers, the authors have proposed a GLOSA system that informs drivers of the most appropriate position for their vehicle instead of their optimal speed. This paper reports on a performance evaluation of our proposed GLOSA system after application to morning rush-hour traffic flow in a simulation of a real-world signalized intersection. A performance evaluation of this numerical simulation showed that our GLOSA system increased the time headway of vehicles and decreased their deceleration rates in the vicinity of the signalized intersection. In addition, the use of the system moderately increased fuel efficiency without affecting vehicle travel time. From these results, it can be concluded that our proposed GLOSA system has the potential to create safer traffic flows in real-world signalized intersections without degrading traffic efficiency.
