Modeling dedicated lanes for connected autonomous vehicles with poly-information uncertainties and electronic throttle dynamics

Numerous studies have demonstrated that connected autonomous vehicles and human-driven vehicles are now coexisting throughout a transitional phase. Traffic flow can be improved, the system can be stabilized, and less energy will be used with dedicated lanes for connected autonomous vehicles. Additionally, with few communication resources, no communication delivery is ever perfect, leading to issues with poly-information uncertainty. First, this paper provides a macroscopic model of heterogeneous traffic flow from the perspective of vehicle dynamics employing electronic throttle dynamics and poly-information uncertainty with/without dedicated lanes. Second, the mixed traffic flow linear stability criterion is derived using the linear stability theory. The third portion, which was based on the theoretical analysis, focused on the consequences of dedicated lane configurations on traffic flow as well as a discussion of the effects of various parameters on the stability of mixed traffic flow and energy consumption emissions. Finally, we modeled the Huanshan Road in Jinan, China using the experimental VISSIM platform. The analysis and demonstration of a two-way, four-lane road with or without dedicated lanes. The findings demonstrate that increasing connected autonomous vehicles penetration and dedicated lanes construction can increase traffic capacity, enhance the stability of traffic flow, and lower energy use and additional emissions. It is important to keep in mind that dedicated lanes must be built at an appropriate connected autonomous vehicle penetration rate to boost traffic flow without squandering resources.
