Delay-Compensated Distributed PDE Control of Traffic With Connected/Automated Vehicles

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We develop an input delay-compensating design for stabilization of an Aw-Rascle-Zhang (ARZ) traffic model in congested regime which is governed by a 2imes2 first-order hyperbolic nonlinear PDE. The traffic flow consists of both adaptive cruise control-equipped (ACC-equipped) and manually-driven vehicles. The control input is the time gap of ACC-equipped and connected vehicles, which is subject to delays resulting from communication lag. For the linearized system, a novel three-branch bakcstepping transformation with explicit kernel functions is introduced to compensate the input delay. The transformation is proved {ae}to be bounded, continuous and invertible, with explicit inverse transformation derived. Based on the transformation, we obtain the explicit predictor-feedback controller. We prove exponential stability of the closed-loop system with the delay compensator in L2 norm. The performance improvement of the closed-loop system under the proposed controller is illustrated in simulation.
