In the management and evaluation of traffic network, signal parameters are important for monitoring and evaluating the operation state and the traffic capacity of intersection. However, a wide range of real-time signal timing schemes lacks a clear and effective method. In this paper, we propose the signal parameter calculation method based on mobile navigation data. Then, the possibility of crossing intersection passing time of the stop line is studied. The time differences between passing times of different cycles are distributed periodically that several peaks appear cycle by cycle. The relationship between sampling rate and relative error is discussed. Combined with the distribution peak normality test, the appropriate distribution peak is selected through the actual case. The cycle lengths and effective red time parameters are calculated and compared with the known signal parameters. The result demonstrates the proposed method has high accuracy and provides data support for the research of the traffic management.
