•Dynamic Speed
Harmonization
•Problem
Addressed:
–Improve throughput and
reduce risk of collision by optimizing for lane-specific speed limits on a
freeway facility
•Description
–Monitor traffic and
weather data captured from multiple sources, and calculate a target speed
for vehicles
–Target speeds may be
advisory or enforced, and may vary by location, e.g., distance upstream of a
recurrent bottleneck, and by lane
–Communicate target
speeds through overhead dynamic signage, via DSRC to enabled vehicles with
range (I2V) and from vehicle to vehicle (V2V)
