Abstract

Predictive traffic signal control pro-actively adapts control decisions to individual vehicle patterns and has the potential to efficiently control traffic in a network reducing congestion. However, in real life, prediction errors will be present, which may influence control performance significantly. Therefore, in this thesis, the performance loss due to prediction errors is analyzed, and robust methods are designed to reduce the impact of prediction uncertainties, improving the real-life applicability of predictive traffic signal control systems.
