Analytical investigation of the open boundary conditions in the Nagel-Schreckenberg model.
We theoretically investigate the mechanism of the open boundary conditions in the deterministic Nagel-Schreckenberg model, which was studied mainly by numerical simulations before. Our studies concentrate on the open boundaries and have found an effective approach for deducing the analytical expression of inflow. We also raise a removal rule which is analyzable. These findings provide a theoretical explanation of the behaviors of the open boundaries and allow the exact prediction of the traffic state by using the injection rate and the removal rate.
