For the complexity of traffic management under the bidirectional free path environment in container terminal,on the basis of considering the AGV physical size,trajectory and driving rules of the vehicle,we set up an environmental map of reasonable grid units,establish a traffic control model of multi-vehicle and multi-task paths,propose an adaptive traffic control method based on path characteristics,and apply the genetic algorithm of rolling scheduling and heuristic strategy to carry out an example test.The results show that compared with the fixed reservation method,the proposed method takes smaller extents as the scheduling interval and forms an adaptive planning period,and the number of reserved raster is more flexible,which realizes the adaptive reservation schedule and blocking avoidance under the flexible section definition,and improves the utilization rate of road resources.
