Abstract
This chapter addresses a control design for performing dynamic congestion pricing as a method to perform traffic assignment to achieve certain objective. The design uses the methodology of optimal control theory. The formulation allows for modeling tolled and non-tolled lanes or routes. A logit model connects the toll price with the driver choice behavior. A feedback optimal tolling control law is designed based on deriving the corresponding Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equation for the model of the system. Simulations are also presented to illustrate the working of the control design. Some of the content of this chapter has been adapted from the following paper: \(\copyright \) 2016 IEEE.
