This paper presents a model predictive control (MPC) approach for optimally managing the traffic light (TL) signals at a road junction. The objective is to improve queue balancing compared to traditional control strategies where TL signals are periodic. The resulting MPC optimization problem is of quadratic mixed-integer nature. The proposed approach is validated via simulations based on a real scenario.

Abstract

This paper presents a model predictive control (MPC) approach for optimally managing the traffic light (TL) signals at a road junction. The objective is to improve queue balancing compared to traditional control strategies where TL signals are periodic. The resulting MPC optimization problem is of quadratic mixed-integer nature. The proposed approach is validated via simulations based on a real scenario.
