Abstract :
Online microscopic simulation is very sensitive to the driving behavior of the individual vehicle-driver combination. Therefore, a virtual driver module has been developed, which includes a route choice model to assign traffic flows between the origin and destination under real-time conditions. The route choice model presented in this paper assigns vehicles in a non-iterative way based on the view of an individual driver. Additionally, it allows to model the influence of en route information and individual in car routing equipments.
