Performance Improvement of Traffic Lights Static Method settings Based on Dynamic Methods.

Abstract

The main problems of big cities like Jakarta is the traffic congestion caused by traffic light settings are set to use static methods. In static methods, traffic lights arranged with a predetermined time for each traffic flow across the intersection of four roads. To solve this problem, analyzes the traffic light settings for static methods and simulation programs will be designed with traffic light settings using the dynamic method with the help of the Java Software Development Kit version 1.5. This simulation program will compare the average waiting time of vehicles is governed by traffic lights with a static method, dynamic method. From this simulation test program concluded that its traffic light settings with a static method can be improved by regulating the green light to obtain the average waiting time, providing optimal vehicle.

Di Indonesia, sistem pengaturan lalu lintas kendaraan yang saat ini diterapkan adalah sistem pengaturan lalu lintas metode statis dimana waktu untuk setiap fase telah ditentukan sebelumnya. Sistem pengaturan lalu lintas metode statis masih belum efektif mengatasi kemacetan lalu lintas. Ketidakefektifan ini disebabkan sistem pengaturan lalu lintas metode statis tidak mempertimbangkan kondisi kepadatan lalu lintas. Pengaturan lampu lalu lintas yang ideal adalah pengaturan lampu lalu lintas yang bersifat dinamis yang bekerja berdasarkan banyaknya kendaraan yang berada di depan lampu lalu lintas.
