This work addresses the problem of controlling freeway traffic systems with coordinated ramp metering, by taking into account not only the reduction of travel times for the drivers but also the improvement of safety conditions. Specifically, a coordinated ramp metering control strategy is sought by defining and solving an optimal control problem in which the objective function to be minimized is a...
The definition of a new control scheme for freeway traffic systems is the objective of the present paper. The main innovative aspect of this work stands in the fact that, besides considering the reduction of traffic congestion, also safety-related aspects are explicitly taken into account in the formulation of the control problem. More specifically, two different performance indexes including a relation...
