Feedback control for car-following model with the consideration of the delay memory driving behavior

Abstract

In this paper, based on the classic coupled map car-following model [11], a new control car-following model is presented with the consideration of the delay memory driving behavior. The stability condition of the control system is obtained via control theory. Numerical simulation implies that the contained delay memory control signal can improve the stability of traffic flow. Furthermore, with the increase of control signal, the control effect of traffic system becomes better.
