OPERATION GREEN LIGHT WIRELESS COMMUNICATION ITSA SUBMITTAL

摘要

Operation Green light (OGL) is a project that was created by the Kansas City region, and is led by Mid-America Regional Council (MARC) in Kansas City MO. The purpose of this project is to coordinate traffic signals within 20 jurisdictions, on regionally significant corridors to decrease stops and delays which will help decrease fuel consumption, and emissions. A metro-wide predominantly wireless network allows the traffic signals to communicate with the central system software. There were several considerations and issues when implementing this network.
