Abstract

The problem of establishing of policy for freeway control can be structured into an ordered set of control problems within a hierarchy of levels of control. In this report, ramp capacity and service volume are defined in terms of entrance-ramp geometry and gap-acceptance and merging-controller-operational characteristics. Subsequently, an optimal control policy is established for an isolated entrance ramp and the integrated total freeway control policy modeled.
