STRICT DERIVATION OF MEAN FIELD EQUATION FOR ONE-DIMENSIONAL TRAFFIC FLOW MODEL

A new analysis method is presented for the study of Fukui-Ishibashi deterministic one-dimensional traffic flow cellular automaton model of high speed car on highway. By using this method, the exact mean field equation describing the fundamental diagram curve of average traffic speed versus the car density on highway can be derived strictly.
