Abstract
With the development of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) enables real-time interaction between intersection signals and vehicle trajectories. The full use of this technological breakthrough will help traffic managers improve the performance of intersections. Most previous research focuses on the 100% CAV environment and the single lateral or longitudinal optimization of CAVs. Based on the flexible characteristics of CAVs, this paper proposes that CAV is regarded as the catalyst of vehicle platoon in mixed traffic environment and considers the uncertainty of CAVs and CHVs’ interaction in the real-world, which can promote the generation of controllable platoon through the “catalytic” mode of cooperative, accelerated, or direct lane-changing, and cooperative or direct overtaking. Simultaneously, a two-stage optimization model of mixed traffic trajectory and signal timing is proposed. Stage I: Based on the predicted vehicle platoon information, a dynamic NEMA signal timing scheme without duplicate structures is generated to minimize vehicle delays. Stage II: Based on the timing scheme, the generation of controllable and stable platoon and vehicle trajectory optimization model are established to minimize vehicle emissions. Dynamic programming with NEMA signal groups as sub-states is designed to solve the proposed model. The performance of the proposed model under different scenarios is investigated through numerical experiments and compared with benchmark models. Results show that the proposed model will outperform the benchmark models regarding average vehicle delay and emission under more realistic traffic demands. The average vehicle delay can be reduced by 54.32% and 7.33%, and the average vehicle emissions can be reduced by 19.1% and 0.8%, respectively. Meanwhile, the sensitivity analysis of CAV market penetration shows that the proposed model can perform satisfactorily at 20% CAV market penetration. Notedly, with increased market penetration, the proposed model will obtain better performance.
