Abstract: A connected vehicle traffic safety system comprises a traffic signal controller and a roadside unit (RSU) located at a one-way traffic lane for avoiding crashes with vehicles of wrong-way drivers by issuing warnings for wrong-way violations. The traffic signal controller is configured to operate a traffic signal. The traffic signal is facing a wrong-way traffic and is set to dwell permanently in a RED signal phase. The one-way traffic lane is configured as a signalized intersection with a wrong-way approach that is programmed as a traffic signal phase dwelling in RED. The roadside unit (RSU) is configured to transmit a Signal Phase and Timing (SPaT) indication for the RED signal phase. A first Onboard Unit (OBU)-equipped vehicle having an Onboard Unit (OBU) that is configured to calculate a RED light violation based on at least one of vehicle location data, direction heading data, and speed data provided from the first OBU-equipped vehicle and the SPaT indication of the RED signal phase to detect the first Onboard Unit (OBU)-equipped vehicle as a wrong-way vehicle.

Abstract: Electromagnetic pulses of substantially nanosecond duration are transmitted from a merge location along transmission lines paralleling merging guideways to be incident to reflecting or repeating apparatus on vehicles approaching the merge. Coupling of the reflecting or repeating apparatus to the transmission line is such that sufficient electromagnetic energy is returned from the n.sup.th vehicle to the merge location for detection and processing thereafter. The returned signals are used to calculate, for each vehicle, the distance from the merge location and the approach speed.

Abstract: A traffic control system for use where several lanes converge into a single lane, as, for example for boarding a ski lift having a series of chairs and a loading station. A series of waiting lines terminates at a location adjacent the loading station, and there is a GO signal or a STOP-AND-GO signal for each line at its termination point. The signals are so controlled according to this invention that the GO signal is displayed for one line at a time, and that the GO signal is advanced serially from line to line in endless repetitive cycle, all lines except the one showing the GO signal either having no signal or showing a STOP signal. The signal advance cycle is actuated by a system relying for operation on the arrival of a chair at a predetermined location where it actuates a switch. The system may also be present in other similar situations.

Abstract: A system of one or more computers can be configured to perform particular operations or actions by virtue of having software, firmware, hardware, or a combination of them installed on the system that in operation causes or cause the system to perform the actions. One general aspect includes a system, including a server computer having a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor such that the computer is programmed to detect a first vehicle in a first lane adjacent to a second lane and plan a first vehicle trajectory for the first vehicle to be placed in a queue in the first lane and, from the queue, transition from the first lane to the second lane based upon at least one determined characteristic of the first vehicle and a second vehicle trajectory and control the first vehicle based upon the first vehicle trajectory.
