Abstract

A new model of vehicles and pedestrians behavior for complex crossroads road traffic control is developed here. The crossroad is equipped with a wireless sensor network as traffic detector reporting real time traffic events used in the modeling phase. The crossroad model is designed and implemented regarding the three traffic lights colors for each lane entering the junction and permits usage of complex test cases independent of the number of lanes.
