AbstractThis paper presents an iterative scheme for a combined signal optimization and assignment problem, using a traffic model from the well-known procedure TRANSYT. The signal settings are optimized by means of a group-based technique, in which the signal timings are specified by the common cycle time, the start time and duration of the period of right of way for each signal group in the network. The optimization problem was formulated as an integer program and solved by a set of heuristics. Given the optimized signal settings determined from the group-based technique, a path-based assignment algorithm is employed to obtain the equilibrium traffic pattern using the sensitivity information for TRANSYT model and a Frank-Wolf method. Based on the equilibrium flow pattern, the group-based optimization algorithm is then used to determine a better set of signal timings. The procedure is repeated until certain convergence criteria are satisfied. A numerical example is employed to demonstrate the benefits obtained from this iterative scheme. Encouraging results are obtained.
