(mentor) Faculty Civil Engineering and Geosciences Department Transport & Planning Programme Transport and Planning Date 2012-05-23 Abstract Coordination between the intersections is used in traffic signal control for quite a long time. The objective of this thesis is to determine how beneficial network coordination is in an adaptive traffic signal control system that follows the multi-agent approach. As part of the research: Simulation results show that coordination in a multi-agent controller can reduce average delay of the users on the network depending on the average demand. The best performing coordination measure is platooning cars on the main streams at the first intersection of the arterial. This provide time for the downstream intersections to serve side streams and ensured that the main stream is not stopped at the downstream intersections on the arterial. The tested coordination measures reduced delay with 10% compared to the original settings.
