Table 1

Cell type description.

Cell typeDescription

Lane-changing cellIt is located on the dedicated lane; the matched CAV would leave the lane at this cell
Merging cellIt is located on the ordinary lane; both the cell that receives the lane-changing CAV and its upstream neighbor cell belong to this cell
Ordinary cellAll the cells that do not belong to lane-changing cell and merging cell
