Abstract
In recent years, computer-controlled public transportation systems have been studied as futuristic urban transportation systems.
In this paper, a mathematical model for the traffic schedule-control problem is built as a discrete state-regulator problem where the distance is chosen as an independent variable, and the deviations from the scheduled time intervals are chosen as the state variables. Computer simulations are performed for 3 kinds of line guideways using this model.
As a result, the control method proposed in this paper is found to be available for application to real systems.
