ABSTRACT
After a detailed analysis of the characteristics of mixed traffic flow, the methods of Cellular Automata theory and rule description are used to build the pedestrian model, motor vehicle model and non-motor vehicle model. And then, the avoidance strategy is provided for motor vehicle as well as non-motor vehicle to avoid pedestrian. Finally, the simulation experiment prototype system of the mixed traffic flow is achieved by the means of system integration. The simulation results show that the system can better describe the complexity and uncertainty of the mixed traffic flow which provides decision-making basis for improving traffic flow at the intersections.
