Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0740280A2] The system has a measuring point at both the entry and exit of a monitored sector, each providing measured data relating to the number and velocity of the vehicles passing through the sector, evaluated for determining the traffic level and the traffic speed. An expected traffic level is calculated from the number of vehicles entering the sector and compared with the actual traffic level at the end of the monitored sector, to determine the number of vehicles remaining within the latter, with a traffic hold-up when this number exceeds a threshold value.
