Improved Velocity Estimation Using Single Loop Detectors
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper develops an improved algorithm for estimating velocity from single loop detector data. Unlike preceding works, the algorithm is simple enough that it can be implemented using existing controller hardware. The discussion shows how the benefits of this work extend to automated tests of detector data quality at dual loop speed traps. Finally, this paper refutes an earlier study that found conventional single loop velocity estimates are biased.

Close Following Behavior: Estimation of Desired Gap Headway Using Loop Detector Data (TECHNICAL NOTE)
The desired gap headway of drivers, while close following, represents the main parameter in determining the following distance between vehicles. This paper uses the raw individual vehicles data taken from loop detectors for millions of vehicles used M25 and M42 in order to estimate the gap headway distributions between successive pairs of vehicles. The data used in this paper were filtered so...

متن کاملAn Adaptive Algorithm for Freeway Speed Estimation with Single-Loop Measurements
Accurate, real-time traffic speed data are important inputs to successful freeway traffic management systems. Unfortunately, vehicle speeds cannot be directly measured by single-loop detectors, which are the most common detectors available in current freeway infrastructures. Algorithms are required to estimate speed using single-loop measurements. In this paper, we present a two-step speed esti...

متن کاملA Novel Method for Estimation of The Fundamental Parameters of Distorted Single Phase Signals
This paper proposes a new method for parameter estimation of distorted single phase signals, through an improved demodulation-based phase tracking incorporated with a frequency adaptation mechanism. The simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method compared to the conventional SOGI (Second-Order Generalized Integrator)-based approach, in spite of the dc-offset and harmon...
