Flow metering and lane-changing optimal control with ramp-metering saturation

Abstract

To accomplish a successful transportation frame-work, we present a new approach to incorporate lane-changing and ramp-metering control, which includes the presence of partially connected and autonomous vehicles. The primary test tended to is coordinating the ramp-metering flow saturation boundaries in the optimal controller. Specifically, a level of vehicles is expected to get and carry out explicit control assignments (e.g., lane-changing control signals). Utilizing a Linear Quadratic Integral (LQI) controller and an anti-windup plan in view of a LTI model, another methodology is introduced for powerfully expanding the throughput at motorway bottlenecks. In terms of assessment, the methodology is implemented on the simulated model, uses a macroscopic traffic model which is a first-order flow model including multi-lane. The capacity drop peculiarity is additionally executed, that addresses the effect of the created method to deal with be demonstrated, same as the improvements in rush hour traffic effectiveness.
