Advanced Fuzzy Logic Model for Volume Based Traffic Signal Control

Abstract This paper describes a functional Fuzzy Traffic Controller (FTC), which utilizes fuzzy logic algorithm to achieve a smart and flexible knowledge based system in hardware design while achieving better efficiency in the traffic control and minimizing traffic jam occurrences at interchange on road area. The designing part of FTC chip into verilog program eliminates the short comings of other custom facilities and conventional controller design available today. The Finite State Machine (FSM) of the FTC is coded in verilog for controlling the specific traffic flow application. The main features of FTC chip consist of various operational modes, safety features and capability through fuzzy logic algorithm
