Abstract

Information feedback strategies are attracting keen attention recently as the central part of intelligent traffic systems. Various strategies have been put forward by previous researchers and have been applied in the model of symmetrical two-route scenario. In this letter, a novel strategy for scenario with speed-limited bottlenecks is raised, which is called weighted value feedback strategy (WVFS). Combined with three former strategies, we simulated these four into a two-route scenario with a speed-limited bottleneck. The results show that our strategy wins over the other three in effectively enhancing and balancing the vehicle numbers, as well as increasing the average flux on both routes.
