TY - JOUR PY - 2022// TI - Arrival-based backpressure traffic signal control JO - Transportation research record A1 - Gao, Hang A1 - Zhang, H. Michael SP - 172 EP - 186 VL - 2676 IS - 9 N2 - Fluctuations in arrival rates significantly affect the performance of traffic signal controls. In this paper, we propose an arrival-based distributed control algorithm based on the backpressure control framework, and show that this arrival-based backpressure (ABP) algorithm preserves the attractive features of backpressure control, including queue mitigation and global stability. Moreover, numerical results show that the ABP algorithm outperforms the fixed, actuated, and original backpressure signal controllers in low, medium, and heavy loading demand levels in increasing throughput, reducing queue length and waiting time.The benefits are evident under periodic traffic scenarios.
