Study vehicle traffic patterns at a street intersections to figure out best approach using SimEvents

File Information
Description

There are two models in this submission.

1. trafficpatterns - a simple model of vehicular traffic on four roads all leading to an intersection controlled by a traffic light. It turns green for each of the four paths with specified durations. Tweak the traffic light durations to study how much traffic builds up on the different paths.

2. trafficpatterns_rotary - The same intersection traffic light has now been replaced by a rotary (traffic circle). The four roads now merge onto the rotary and don't have to wait for the traffic light. There are constraints on the rotary that specify how much time it takes to cross it. Compare the results to the previous model.

Required Products DSP System Toolbox
SimEvents
MATLAB release MATLAB 7.4 (R2007a)

It seems that the Matlab program SimE is very useful. Unfortunately, my Matlab version
is 7.1. I wonder if the author can let the program be run in version 7.1.

The MatlabR2007a can run this program?

Nice demo. One minor note -- the scopes for Temple St. South and Temple St. North are reversed in the rotary model.

Added the traffic signal JPEG so that the downloaded model displays the mask image correctly.
