Optimal control of autonomous vehicles for traffic smoothing

S Wang, R Stern, MW Levin - IEEE Transactions on Intelligent …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Uniform traffic flow has been shown to be unstable in certain flow regimes due to collective
behaviors of human drivers, resulting in the well-observed stop-and-go waves. These traffic …
