Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013143621A1] The invention relates to a method for adapting vehicular traffic flow with a plurality of vehicles and at least one traffic flow regulation device outside the vehicles, preferably in form of a traffic light signal controller for traffic lights, is characterized in that a) Determining current moving states of the vehicles, wherein a current moving state includes driving condition information of a vehicle, b) Determining a current device state of at least one of traffic flow regulation devices wherein a device state includes moving profile impact information for the vehicles, c) Calculating moving profiles of the vehicles and/or calculating an operational profile of at least one of the traffic flow regulation devices based on the corresponding current states d) Exchanging profile information of the calculated moving profiles and/or the calculated operational profile, e) Adapting the moving profiles and/or the operational profile according to the exchanged profile information of step d) wherein at least steps d) and e) are performed iteratively until a predetermined convergence criterion is fulfilled.
