The integration of Automated Vehicles (AVs) into traffic flow holds the potential to significantly improve traffic congestion by enabling AVs to function as actuators within the flow. This paper introduces an adaptive speed controller tailored for scenarios of mixed autonomy, where AVs interact with human-driven vehicles. We model the traffic dynamics using a system of strongly coupled Partial and Ordinary Differential Equations (PDE-ODE), with the PDE capturing the general flow of human-driven traffic and the ODE characterizing the trajectory of the AVs. A speed policy for AVs is derived using a Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithm structured within an Actor-Critic (AC) framework. This algorithm interacts with the PDE-ODE model to optimize the AV control policy. Numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the controller's impact on traffic patterns, showing the potential of AVs to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion. |
