Abstract :
In order to realize the highway´s traffic simulation, a CA model is used to solve the traffic simulation problem under many kinds of influencing factors. By analyzing the influence of the freight vehicles, the multiple tracks change situations, the toll station traffic flow, the on-ramp convergence, and the vehicles queuing, a CA simulation solution is given. The CA simulation´s result is closer to the measured value, and builds a solid foundation for the establishment of the highway traffic guidance system.
