Non-Local Feedback Ramp Metering Controller Design

چکیده
This paper treats the problem of controlling large freeway systems through ramp metering to enhance their efficiency. Following a rigorous discretization methodology, an extension of the CTM model to inhomogeneous freeways with on and off ramps is proposed. Based on passivity theory and the piecewise affine formulation of this model, an LMI formulation is developed to design non-local feedback ramp metering controllers. Copyright 2006 IFAC.

A Set of New Traffic-responsive Ramp-metering Algorithms and Microscopic Simulation Results
In this paper, we present a novel switching traffic-responsive ramp-metering controller that adapts to the different traffic dynamics under different congestion conditions—free-flow or congested. The approach of multirate linear quadratic control with integral action (LQI) is employed to compensate for disturbances and to accommodate the difference between the model sampling time and the meteri...

The recently developed traffic-responsive feedback control strategy HERO (HEuristic Ramp metering cOordination), that coordinates local ramp-metering actions in freeway networks, was implemented at the M1/M3 Freeway in Queensland, Australia. HERO employs an extended version of the feedback regulator ALINEA at the local level. HERO outperforms uncoordinated local ramp metering and approaches the...

This paper formulates the ramp metering control problem as a real-time feedback control problem. The development is shown by modeling freeway sections, and hence the results are immediately applicable to isolated ramp metering problems. The ideas presented in this paper can be utilized to develop coordinated ramp metering feedback control techniques. Three different forms of the formulation for...
