Development of an algorithm for synchronization of traffic light controller programs

This article develops an algorithm for synchronizing traffic light controller programs on one route in accordance with the general plan from the core. The relevance of the problem under consideration is described within the framework of improving the quality of functioning of adaptive and intelligent traffic control systems. An analysis of domestic and foreign modern solutions is carried out that ensure synchronization of traffic light modes in both local and distributed control systems of traffic light objects. Based on the necessary initial data and entered conditions that provide the required performance indicators of traffic control systems, an algorithm for synchronizing traffic controller programs is developed. For clarification, a general diagram of the synchronization algorithm is given. Conclusions are made on the results of testing the algorithm in real conditions and the prospects for further development of this study are described, including integration with existing control systems and the possibility of adaptation to various urban infrastructures.
