Control of vehicular traffic through a sequence of traffic lights positioned with disordered interval

We study the dynamical behavior of vehicular traffic through a sequence of traffic lights which are positioned with inhomogeneous interval on a roadway and turn on and off periodically with the synchronized strategy. The dynamics of vehicular traffic controlled by traffic lights is described in terms of the stochastic nonlinear map. When the interval between traffic lights fluctuates highly, vehicles cannot move together with the same tour time. While vehicles can move together with the other at less inhomogeneous interval between traffic lights for specific values of cycle time. If heterogeneity of traffic-lightʹs interval is higher, it becomes more difficult to control vehicles moving together. The phase diagram (region map) is presented for controlling the vehicular traffic.
