Synchronized work zone traffic management systems and methods are disclosed herein. An example method includes synchronizing, by a first vehicle, communication with a second vehicle over a wireless link, and displaying alternatingly, by the first vehicle, one of two messages on a first external display according to an alternating schema. A first message indicates to drivers to drive slowly and a second message indicates to the drivers to stop. The first message being displayed on the first external display when the second vehicle is displaying the second message on a second external display. The first vehicle displaying the second message on the first external display when the second vehicle is displaying the first message on the second external display. The alternating displaying of the first and second messages being used to control flow of traffic on a one-way street.

A vehicle coordination system is provided for coordinating the trajectories of vehicles on a road network. The vehicle coordination system comprises a plurality of vehicles each having respective vehicle position tracking assemblies that are in communication with respective vehicle communication systems for transmitting vehicle state messages including positions of the vehicles. A task assignment allocator is provided that is arranged to generate task assignments for each of the plurality of vehicles, including destinations in the road network for the vehicles. A vehicle coordination assembly is in communication with the vehicle communication systems via a data network for receiving the vehicle state messages. The vehicle coordination assembly is configured to determine respective paths for each vehicle to arrive at their respective destinations and determine trajectory control commands for each vehicle to traverse their respective paths whilst optimizing a predetermined objective and avoiding active interactions of two or more of the vehicles occurring in any shared areas of the paths. The vehicle coordination assembly is configured to transmit the trajectory control commands to each vehicle. The predetermined objective may be an aggregate traversal time for the vehicles.

In non-limiting examples of the present disclosure, systems, methods and devices for surfacing drive safety notifications are provided. A personal driving pattern library comprising first data associated with a first user for a plurality of road sections included in a first route may be maintained. A global driving pattern library comprising second data associated with a plurality of users for the plurality of road sections included in the first route may be maintained. A determination may be made that the first user is going to travel the first route. A first drive safety score for the first user driving the first route may be calculated. A determination may be made that the first drive safety score is below a threshold value. A drive safety notification may be caused to be surfaced.

An advance in the art is made according to aspects of the present disclosure directed to distributed fiber optic sensing systems (DFOS), methods, and structures that advantageously monitor and identify—in real-time—roadway traffic and patterns across a multiple-lane highway by employing a multiple-transverse fiber optic cable arrangement of optical fiber cable positioned under the highway/roadway to detect, monitor, and/or identify traffic.

A method by which a first device performs wireless communication and an apparatus for supporting same are provided. The method comprises the steps of: determining a selection window; selecting Y candidate slots within the selection window; determining at least one slot related to the Y candidate slots, on the basis of a resource reservation period value set for a resource pool; selecting at least one sidelink (SL) resource from among SL resources included in the Y candidate slots, on the basis of sensing the at least one slot; and performing SL communication on the basis of the at least one SL resource, wherein the value of Y may be a positive integer.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method, an apparatus and a device for an illegal vehicle warning. The method includes: detecting an illegal vehicle in a preset area; and performing the illegal vehicle warning on a target vehicle entering the preset area according to vehicle information of a detected illegal vehicle in the preset area. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the traffic control unit detects the illegal vehicle in the preset area, and the illegal vehicle warning is performed on the target vehicle entering the preset area according to the vehicle information of the detected illegal vehicle in the preset area, thereby avoiding or mitigating the collision of the target vehicle with the illegal vehicle, and improving the traffic safety of the target vehicle.

A cluster generation apparatus includes processing circuitry configured to acquire position information and time information for a plurality of users; generate a cluster based on spots visited by the users by using the position information for the users, the cluster being a classification of the users; and generate, for each generated cluster, a movement route based on a history of movement of the cluster between the spots, from the time information and the position information for the users belonging to the cluster.

Traffic signal timing plans are derived from vehicle trajectory or probe data. The probe data is collected and archived in a datastore over a sample time on the order of weeks or longer. Probe data is corrected for clock drift, geo-fence filtered to a selected intersection, and then stop line crossings in the intersection are identified and analyzed along with related data to determine the timing plans and schedule for the intersection. In this way, access to government agency timing plans is obviated so as to save time and expense.

The present disclosure relates to a method for which a road area is divided into multiple resources and a storage device for reservation data for exclusively reserving the respective resource is provided that is made available to each road user. A control circuit of a respective road user plans a respective movement route over at least one of the resources on the basis of reservation data currently stored in the storage device and takes the planned movement route as a basis for reserving the resources required therefor by generating its own reservation data in the storage device.

A method for controlling a flow of traffic on a roundabout, wherein the flow of traffic is controlled by a traffic control unit by which road users that have entered the roundabout and/or are approaching the roundabout in order to enter it are networked in a network and communicate by way of messages, and wherein, in order to enter, a road user transmits a message containing a request to the traffic control unit provides for entry by the respective road user to be preceded by the flow of traffic that is on the roundabout being determined on the basis of the messages, wherein a message containing a control signal is generated for the respective entering road user in order to communicate whether and/or along which route the road user can travel on the roundabout.
