This paper presents an integrated method for online calibration of realtime traffic network simulation models. The method integrates a time-dependent demand adjustment module and a link-based traffic flow propagation model calibration module. These modules use available realtime traffic observations to minimize inconsistency between the model estimation results and real-world observations. The modules are integrated into a real-time traffic network management system that was developed for the US-75 corridor in Dallas, Texas. Results illustrate that the online calibration method is effective in enhancing the model's consistency in the different operational conditions.

According to the estimation information of dynamic traffic demands, a novel optimal control model of freeway was established on the basis of the hierarchical concept. There are four control modules in this model. The OD prediction module predicts the total traffic demands in a long time and determines the upper bound of the future queuing length in advance; the global optimal control module predicts the future traffic state and establishes the coordination constraints for each ramp in the network; the traffic demand estimation module estimates the real-time traffic conditions for each ramp; the local adaptive control module regulates ramp metering rate according to the estimated information of the real-time traffic conditions and the results optimized by the global optimal control module. The simulation results show that this control system is of a good dynamic performance. It coordinates the benefits of various ramps and optimizes the overall performance of the freeway network.
