Abstract
We develop a day-to-day route choice control method that is based on model
predictive control (MPC). For the route choice we assume that drivers base
their decision on the experienced travel times. These travel times can be
influenced via existing control measures, e.g. outflow limits or variable speed
limits. This allows us to indirectly influence the route choice of the drivers.
In previous work we have developed a route choice control method for networks
with simple, non-overlapping routes, single destinations, and constant or
piecewise constant flows. In this paper we extend this method to networks with
overlapping routes and with restricted link inflow capacities. We illustrate
the control approach with a case study for a simple network with four routes.
