by Neila Bhouri, INRETS, Arcueil, France,
Markos Papageorgiou, INRETS, Arcueil, France,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Applications of Advanced Technologies in Transportation Engineering

Abstract:

Two on-ramp metering strategies are compared by a simulation study for the Boulevard Peripherique in Paris. The first one is a local strategy, based on linear feedback control theory. The second is a global strategy based on optimal control theory.
