Application of Fuzzy Logic in Traffic System

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to develop a fuzzy logic model for traffic system. This model is used to overcome the problem of traffic congestion in cities. Consequently, travelling time, fuel consumption and pollution can reduce. Moreover, traffic flow prediction helps the transport users to plan their time of travel and also in selecting the travelling path depending on the predicted information. In this paper, we used density of vehicles variable to design a system which uses the green signal depending on the number of vehicles in that particular line. Here fuzzy logic toolbox of MATLAB is used. The fuzzy sets and membership functions are chosen in an appropriate manner. KeywordsFuzzy logic toolbox, density, signal time, traffic system.The success of fuzzy logic can be realized when [8], asserts that there are thousands of patents in Japan and in the United States
