Abstract

The establishment of road network model is critical for path planning in an intelligent transportation system (ITS) or vehicle navigation system. This paper have proposed a new road network model which is simple in description but can take delay time (including red-time delay) at various intersections (including rotary or ring intersection, cloverleaf intersection), turn exhibition and one-way or two-way street into account, and can avoid a complicate calculation for the delay time. An improved Dijkstra algorithm based on the new model was given. The simulation results show that the new model can work well and the improved algorithm is efficient.
