Phase diagram of congested traffic flow: An empirical study
We analyze traffic data from a highway section containing one effective on-ramp. Based on two criteria, local velocity variation patterns and expansion (or nonexpansion) of congested regions, three distinct congested traffic states are identified. These states appear at different levels of the upstream flux and the on-ramp flux, thereby generating a phase digram of the congested traffic flow. O...
متن کاملTheoretical vs. Empirical Classification and Prediction of Congested Traffic States
Starting from the instability diagram of a traffic flow model, we derive conditions for the occurrence of congested traffic states, their appearance, their spreading in space and time, and the related increase in travel times. We discuss the terminology of traffic phases and give empirical evidence for the existence of a phase diagram of traffic states. In contrast to previously presented phase...
متن کاملCongested traffic states in empirical observations and microscopic simulations
We present data from several German freeways showing different kinds of congested traffic forming near road inhomogeneities, specifically lane closings, intersections, or uphill gradients. The states are localized or extended, homogeneous or oscillating. Combined states are observed as well, like the coexistence of moving localized clusters and clusters pinned at road inhomogeneities, or region...
متن کاملFundamental Diagram of Traffic Flow New Identification Scheme and Further Evidence from Empirical Data
This paper further investigates the specification and calibration of FDs. The purpose is to provide a consistent, systematic, and adaptive way to obtain FDs from single-loop detector measurements. In particular, the piecewise linear form is adopted for the FD, because (a) more-complex forms of the FD can be approximated by a piecewise linear form with arbitrarily many pieces, and (b) empirical ...
متن کاملAn Empirical Study of Real Audio Traffic
The delivery of multimedia content is a facet of Internet traffic that is rapidly growing in importance. The new generation of World Wide Web sites are relying heavily on extensive multi-media content such as graphics, sound, music and video to attract and retain visitors. While there have been extensive studies on the growth and effects of Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) traffic used on th...
