This paper discusses the optimal traffic control signal setting for an $M \times N$ rectangular road traffic network. By introducing the concepts of synchronization rate and non-synchronization degree, a mathematical model is constructed and an optimization problem is posed. Then, a new iterative algorithm is developed to solve this optimal traffic control signal setting problem. Convergence properties for this iterative algorithm are established. Finally, a numerical example is solved to illustrate the effectiveness of the method.
Keywords: optimization., intersection, traffic signal setting, synchronization, Urban traffic network.
