Abstract
There is a need to cater for geometric increase in the number of road users on our road and in order to avert road congestion, accidents, and other possible effects; the need for research into traffic light controller becomes imperative. Operating traffic signals is inherently a difficult task with many conflicting objectives. This research designs and simulates a fuzzy traffic light control system using method that incorporates fuzzy logic to control the phase-splits of the traffic light at road intersections. MATLAB (fuzzy tool) software is used to simulate the effectiveness of fuzzy logic controller in controlling traffic conditions at intersections. The fuzzy traffic controller operates by determining whether to extend or terminate the current green phase, based on a set of fuzzy rules which consists of the IF … THEN rules, that are used for its decision. The fuzzy rules compare the traffic conditions with the current green phases and with the next candidates green phase.
