Summary:In order to implement coordinated control and collaborative information processing based on multi-agent systems (MAS) for sensor network used in traffic information collection, architecture of MAS for sensor network is presented in this paper. Two kinds of agents including sensor node agent and sink node agent, as well as the agents' internal modules, are designed and implemented. The MAS architecture is verified in the distributed traffic control system, where traffic control is realized through the coordinated control and collaborative information processing of MAS. Simulation results also verified the feasibility of the proposed MAS architecture. According to the analysis and simulation results, we can conclude that, when used in coordinated control and collaborative information collection of sensor network for traffic information collection, the architecture of MAS presented in this paper is feasible.
