Abstract

In this paper, a car-following model is utilized to study the effects of signal light on each vehicle’s fuel consumption, CO, HC and NOX. The numerical results show that each vehicle’s fuel consumption and emissions are influenced by the signal light and that the effects are related to the green split of the signal light and the vehicle’s time headway at the origin, which can help drivers adjust their micro driving behavior on the road with a signal light to reduce their fuel consumption and emissions.
