Abstract

A new two-lane changing model with inter-vehicle communication based on intelligent transportation system for traffic flow is proposed. By taking the information of several front vehicles in both self-lane and objective lane into consideration, drivers can predict the velocity tendency of next time steps on both lanes, thus decide whether to change lanes or not. Simulations with both periodic boundary and open boundary under the new lane changing model and Rickert's lane changing model [17] are conducted. Compared with previous lane changing models, the lane changing model in this paper can reduce ping pang lane changing frequency effectively. When there is a bottleneck on the one lane, the new lane changing mechanism performs better than the traditional model.
