| Abstract | Ab $tracl. TraffIc congestion is an ongoing problem of great interest to researchers from different areas in academia. INIth the emerging te<:hnology for inter-vehicle communicatKII'l , vehicles have the ability to exchange Information w~h predecessors by wireless communication. In this paper, we present an agent-based model altrafflC congestion and examine the impact of having CACC (Cooperative Adaptive Cl'1,lise Control) embedded vehicle(s) on a highway system consisting of 4 traffic lanes without overtaking. In our model, CACC veh icles adapt their acceleratiorlldecelerat ion according to vehicle·lo-vehicle inter.communicatkm. we analyze the average speed of the cars, the shockWaves, and the evolution of traffic congest ion Ihroughoutthe lifecycle of the model. The study idenlifies how CACC vehides affecllhe dynamics of traffic ftow on a complex networ1< and reduce the oSCillatory behavior (stop and go) resufting from the accelerati on/deceteration of the vehicles. |
