Design and Implementation of a Real-time Traffic Light Control System Based on FPGA

In this paper, the design and implementation of a real-time traffic light control system based on Fieldprogrammable Gate Array (FPGA) technology is reported.The traffic light control system is designed with VHDL language.Its function was verified with simulation.After that, the VHDL design was downloaded to FPGA board hardware to verify its function in experiment.The designed traffic light control system was shown to work properly as expected.
