Fuzzy logic approach on traffic control of a Diverging Diamond Interchange in real time
In the recent paper, authors have considered a problem of controlling an oversaturated intersection in real time and developed a mathematical model based on fuzzy logic. The model was tested on an oversaturate “T” intersection and we obtained solutions with less control delay in comparison to the “fixed time” model. First, we will present the basic concepts of those results. In the rest of the paper, we apply a similar technique to develop a model for controlling a diverging diamond interchange – a type of diamond interchange in which the two directions of traffic on the non-freeway road cross to the opposite side on both sides of the bridge at the freeway. This type of interchange was developed in the 1970s in France but since 2009. it has been implemented in many different locations, above all in the USA.
