  • the position of the vehicle and the position of the traffic light can be taken into account in a digital road map in which, for example, the maximum permissible speeds are also noted. In this case, this speed in the data transmission can not be transmitted.
  • this method variant allows a prediction of whether a traffic light is located in the traffic route of the vehicle, and the retrieval of the switching times to this traffic light in advance by the vehicle.
  • the database for this is preferably sorted in such a way that the retrieval of the data takes place on the basis of the position data of the traffic light and / or the vehicle, i. the traffic lights in the database are sorted according to preferably global coordinates of a position or navigation system, in order, for example, to transmit the switching times of the coming traffic light and, if appropriate, the subsequent traffic lights on the basis of transmitted vehicle positions.
  • a further improvement of the prediction accuracy can be achieved if navigation data of the vehicle is taken into account in the speed recommendation.
  • this can be done, in particular, by taking into account additional traffic lights on the route for determining the speed recommendation, and by reaching a green wave for several consecutive traffic lights even when departing from a main traffic route.

  • Switching times represent the switching times between the traffic light phases (for example red, yellow, green), it also being sufficient for carrying out the method according to the invention to take into account only the switching times for the phases red and green, since the yellow phases are very short and at one Speed recommendation does not necessarily have to be considered.

With this information, the data server can then transform the switching time to the reference time and store it based on this time base. Due to the short time between a switching time of a phase change of the traffic light and the transmission to the server no appreciable inaccuracy occurs here. However, this procedure can be dispensed with if the traffic light knows the reference time base itself, for example because it also communicates with a receiver of the positioning or navigation system. or the reference time is synchronized at regular intervals over a communication link.
  • a program is also installed in traffic light controls that specifies the switching times. Then it is also possible, for example, to transfer the program and its start time to the database. Based on this, the database can calculate the switching times for this traffic light and store it explicitly or as a calculation rule in the database. Therefore, it is basically sufficient if the program and the start time are sent only once, especially when starting the operation. For synchronization, however, it is advisable to retransmit the start time and possibly also the program at fixed time intervals. A suitable period is about 24 hours, ie a once-daily synchronization.
