METHOD OF TRAFFIC CONGESTION ESTIMATION

摘要

Disclosed is a method of traffic congestion estimation including a speed detection step of detecting speed of a vehicle in a predetermined period of time and outputting the detection result; a frequency analysis step of analyzing a frequency of the result of the speed detection and outputting the power spectrum; a slope detection step of detecting a slope of a power spectrum and outputting the detection result; a time variation calculation step of calculating time variation of the slope and outputting the calculation result; and a traffic congestion estimation step of estimating occurrence of traffic congestion from the calculation result of the time variation of the slope and outputting the estimation result.
