Integrating Traffic Noise Emission Modelling into Variable Speed Limit Control

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 1, 2026 · UTC

Road traffic noise remains a major environmental challenge, yet most speed management strategies are static and do not respond to short-term variations in traffic noise emissions. Although variable speed limit (VSL) systems are widely deployed for safety and congestion mitigation, traffic noise is rarely treated as an explicit operational control objective. This paper proposes a noise-aware VSL framework that integrates aggregated traffic-state estimation with a simplified CNOSSOS-EU-based emission indicator. A stage-based controller with time-varying reference thresholds dynamically adjusts d
