  11. SCATS Technology Introduction Bo Gao, P.E., PTOE

  12. SCATS U.S Deployment

  13. Minimizes stops and overall delays • True cycle-by-cycle adaptive control • Cycle • Split • Offset • Optimized parameters implemented in next cycle SCATS Operational Objectives

  14. SCATS Data Requirements • Stop Bar Presence Detection • Inductive Loop • Video Detection • Magnetic Detection • Radar Detection • SCATS Operated by Looking at “Space” Between Vehicles Loop Space Time (secs)

  15. SCATS Functions - Linking • Intersections Can “Marry" or “Divorce" • Married Intersections Operate on a Common Cycle Length & Offset Plan • User Defined Marriage Options: • When CL's are Within 10 sec or • When One-Way Volume Exceeds a Configured Threshold or • When a “Forced” / Continuous Marriage is Required • Algorithms Focus on Minimal Cycle-by-Cycle Adjustments to Stabilize Progression & Coordination

  16. Multiple Communications Options Serial Communications Point-to-Point Point-to-Multipoint Ethernet Communications Copper Fiber Wireless Once per second polling and data exchange Band width - 8 kbps /per controller SCATS Communication Requirements

  17. Central Server/PC Pentium III or above processor 512 Mb RAM 40 GB hard drive SCATS Hardware Requirements
