Abstract
Single intersection is generally regarded as the elementary unit for solving traffic problem. A Type-2 fuzzy logic controller (T2FLC) for single intersection signal control is presented in this paper as Type-2 fuzzy logic can handle the imprecision, uncertainties and vagueness lying in the dynamic process more efficiently. Furthermore, the membership function parameters of Type-2 fuzzy logic controller are optimized by genetic algorithm (GA). Simulation experiments are designed to compare the queue length and vehicular average delay of Type-2 fuzzy control optimized by GA with general Type-2 fuzzy control, Type-1 fuzzy control and fixed-time control under various types of vehicle arrival rate. Experimental results indicate that our proposed control method can reduce the queue length and vehicular delay at the intersection effectively and thus demonstrates its superiority.
