Data model for signal cycle and split optimization
Network object type |
Attribute |
Description |
Signal controllers and subordinated objects |
|
Signal times and stage distribution in the initial state |
Signal controller |
Reference to signal coordination groups |
At cycle time optimization with procedure parameter UseCycleTimeFamily=True, only one member of the cycle time family of the coordination group is selected as a new cycle time. |
Signal coordination group |
Cycle time family |
|
Signal controller |
ICA maximum cycle time for optimization ICA minimum cycle time for optimization |
At cycle time optimization with procedure parameter UseCycleTimeFamily = false, the new cycle time is selected from the interval between these two attributes. |
Signal controller |
Optimization method |
0 = no signal time optimization for the signal controller at this node 1 = only split optimization 2 = signal cycle and split optimization |
Signal controller |
Turned off |
If the signal controller has been turned off, no signal time optimization will be calculated for the node (main node). |
Turn |
The attribute for the design hourly volume set in the procedure parameters |
Turn volumes |
Node model and subordinate objects |
All geometry attributes |
Lane allocation at node |
Optimization is controlled by the following procedure parameters (components of the procedure parameters for intersection capacity analysis):
Procedure parameter |
Data type (Standard) |
Description |
Automatic green time optimization |
Bool (False) |
Are the signal times always optimized within the ICA calculation? If yes, it depends on the signal controller attribute Optimization method which optimization method is applied to which signal controller. |
UseCycleTimeFamily |
Bool (True) |
At cycle time optimization with procedure parameters UseCycleTimeFamily=True, only one member of the cycle time family of the coordination group (if available) is selected as a new cycle time. |
Precision of computation |
Full seconds or tenths of seconds |
Use this parameter to specify whether full seconds or tenths of a second are permitted as green time start and end. |
