Robust Control for Urban Road Traffic Networks

Nonlinear gating control for urban road traffic network using the network fundamental diagram

“…Accordingly, in this work, the NMPC technique of Grune and Pannek [29] is applied. Due to the major advantages paraphrased text mentioned earlier, MPC has been widely investigated for road traffic engineering as well, for example, Tettamanti et al [1], Aboudolas et al [2], Tettamanti et al [30], Tettamanti et al [5], Csikós et al [31], Ramezani et al [32] are a few relevant papers in the field of MPC based traffic control.…”

Self-management in Urban Traffic Control: An Automated Planning Perspective

“…There are several applications of artificial intelligence to urban traffic control with the aim of creating intelligent systems that will optimise the flow of traffic in urban centers [5][6][7]. Yet, the existing urban traffic control (UTC) approaches are not generally optimal during unforeseen situations such as road incidents, car breakdown or when traffic demand changes rapidly within a short time interval [8,9].…”

Constrained H∞ control of urban transportation network

“…It is necessary to note that, in the existing works that have applied the store-and-forward approach (e.g., [7,10,19]), the relationship (12) is ignored in the modeling, and the system is considered controllable by using the control variable g. However, such relationship is imposed by the physical signification; hence, it must be verified in the implementation of their proposed control strategies. For example, although the feedback control law of [7] is calculated without considering this relationship, its controller in real systems must solve a quadratic-programming (QP) problem in every cycle to obtain the most approximate green times that satisfy such condition.…”
