Simulation of improved hybrid petri nets intersection model considering traffic distribution

Traffic Control System in an intersection is a basis for management of urban traffic area system in particular traffic safety gain more attention now a days. This study proposed a new hybrid petri nets structure at the intersection to model red-light violation, yellow-light and green-light running in a two one-way intersection. Model is simulated using simHPN toolbox. The main advantage of a hybrid petri nets under simHPN is to utilize a different type of traffic characteristics such as macroscopic and microscopic behaviour and vehicle probability distribution random variable in case of red-light violation, yellow-light and green-light running. The random variables are obtained through a traffic count survey and analyze using Kolmogorov-Smirnov hypothesis test.
