Lane capacity and cost function for the mixed traffic scenario with connected and autonomous vehicles
-
摘要: 针对未来人工驾驶车辆与网联自动驾驶车辆(CAV)混行场景,基于安全车头时距分类、CAV编队规模上限的不同假设,分别推导了混行车道通行能力、以自然车辆数表示的路阻函数的计算表达式;为使不同交通组成的混合交通流之间具有可比性,利用以当量交通量表示的路阻函数,反推出CAV的车辆换算系数(PCE);在未对不同跟驰模式的安全车头时距取值做简化假设的前提下,依据CAV技术发展水平划分积极、中立和保守3种技术场景,分别对应不同的安全车头时距,通过理论分析与数值试验的方法探讨了CAV渗透率、编队规模上限对混行车道通行能力、路阻函数和CAV的PCE的影响。研究结果表明:混行车道通行能力、路阻函数和CAV的PCE计算表达式均是CAV渗透率和编队规模上限的二元函数,而上述函数关于任一单一变量的单调性则直接取决于安全车头时距的取值;当渗透率为0.4时,考虑CAV编队规模上限较无编队情况下的混行车道通行能力在积极技术场景下增加5.04%,中立技术场景增加10.93%,保守技术场景增加4.55%;在积极、中立技术场景下,CAV能够有效减少交通拥堵和延误,在保守技术场景下网联自动驾驶技术的发展水平较低,路段阻抗随CAV渗透率的增大呈现先增大后减小的趋势。Abstract: Aiming at the future mixed traffic scenario of human-driven vehicles and connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs), this study derived the calculation formulas for mixed-lane capacity and cost function expressed in natural vehicle units through classification, based on different assumptions regarding safety headway classification and the limit of CAV platoon size. To ensure comparability between mixed traffic flows with different compositions, the passenger car equivalents (PCE) of CAV were inversely derived using the cost function represented by passenger car unit (PCU). Finally, without making any simplified assumptions about safety headway values of different car-following modes, three technical scenarios (positive, neutral, and conservative) were divided according to the development level of CAV technology, corresponding to different types of safety headways respectively. Research influence of the CAV penetration rate and the limit of platoon size on mixed-lane capacity, cost function, and CAV's PCE was explored through theoretical analysis and numerical experiments. Research results indicate that the calculation formulas for mixed-lane capacity, cost function, and CAV's PCE are all bivariate functions of the CAV penetration rate and the limit of platoon size. The monotonic relationship between each bivariate function and a single variable directly depends on the values of safety headways. When the CAV penetration rate is 0.4, compared with the scenario without platooning, the mixed-lane capacity increases by 5.04% in the positive technical scenario, 10.93% in the neutral technical scenario, and 4.55% in the conservative technical scenario. In the positive and neutral technical scenarios, CAV can effectively reduce traffic congestion and delay, while in the conservative technical scenario with a relatively low development level of connected and autonomous driving technology, the cost first increases and then decreases with the increase in CAV penetration rate.
