| Abstract | This Technical Report on Prototype Intelligent Network Flow Optimization (INFLO) Dynamic Speed Harmonization and Queue Warning is the final report for the project. It describes the prototyping, acceptance testing and small-scale demonstration of the INFLO Prototype Speed Harmonization (SPD-HARM) and Queue Warning (Q-WARN) applications. This report also describes the programmatic and technical accomplishments of the program wherein the Small-Scale Demonstration fully confirmed the functionality of the INFLO Prototype System in an operational highway traffic environment. The system was proven to reliably Capture current location and telematics data from connected vehicles and vehicle speed data from infrastructure Analyze the data to detect congestion and determine the beginning and end of congestion queues Formulate speed harmonization recommendations Communicate queue location and speed harmonization recommendations to drivers. The demonstration proved connected vehicle data capture and dissemination functionality using both cellular communications and DSRC communications. Furthermore, the Small-Scale Demonstration confirmed that the INFLO Prototype System has the latency and processing speed to support INFLO application functionality in an operational traffic environment. |
