Abstract:
This paper has two main contributions. First, it presents a simple
area-wide emission (or dispersion) model for a freeway traffic
networks. The model takes the variation of the wind speed and
direction into account. Second, it presents a nonlinear parametrized
MPC controller for freeway traffic systems. Next, the proposed model
and control approach are illustrated with a simulation-based case
study. The simulation results show improved traffic performance with
respect to the uncontrolled system.
