  1. Thinking Inside the Box: Traffic Controllers for Traffic Analysis Bill Ische Sr. Business Development Manager Trafficware Group, LLC Sugar Land, TX

  2. Trafficware Overview

  3. Synchro Studio and Traffic Signal Controllers • Synchro allows for basic traffic controller input • Synchro calculations are deterministic • HCM and other analysis tools use controller settings • Accurate controller settings are critical • SimTraffic mimics basic signal functions • Basic Signal Timings • Coordination • Volume-Density Settings

  4. Trafficware CI • Trafficware Controller Interface • Hardware-in-the-loop (HILS) • Connects to Controller’s SDLC Port • Primary Applications • Training • Testing Advanced Controller Logic

  5. Trafficware Virtual Controller • Emulates an actual Signal Controller • Software-in-the-loop (SILS) • Implemented into SimTraffic • Performs exactly like a field controller • Perform advanced simulation and analysis

  6. Trafficware Controllers • Software-based • Synchro Studio • Virtual Controller • Hardware-based

  7. Trafficware (Naztec) 980 ATC • ~100x Faster than Trafficware 980 NEMA • ~80x Faster than 2070 Controller • 8 line x 40 column display • Ethernet Capabilities • USB Memory Device Support

  8. Trafficware ATC • ATC 5.2b Compliant (Considers Draft ATC 6.0) • 16 line Display • NEMA TS2 (Type 1 or Type 2) or 2070 • 4 x 10/100 Ethernet Ports • USB Memory Device Support

  9. Trafficware Controller Software • Trafficware Patriot v.76 Controller Software • NTCIP Based • Unified Controller Software (ATC & 2070) • Unlock Modules

  10. Feature 1: High-Resolution Data Logging • Feature Release Date Today! • 1/10 Second Data Logging Resolution • Framework allows for advanced functionality • Detailed data for post-processing • Future TW development • Can Construct Purdue Coordination Diagrams Image Source: Day, Haseman, Premachandra, Brennan, Wasson, Sturdevant and Bullock

  11. Feature 2: Extensive Data Logging • Signal Timing Data • Traffic Counts • Allows for Analysis and Performance Tools • Report Generation • Time-Space Diagrams • Measures of Effectiveness

  12. Feature 3: Support for Advanced Functionality • Controller Software has Advanced Functionality • Transit Signal Priority • Adaptive Signal Control (SynchroGreen) • Traffic Responsive • Emergency Priority

  13. Summary • Trafficware has many controller types • Traffic controller logic is comprehensive • More than just timers • Supports modules and advanced functionality • Utilize reporting/recording features
