Abstract
In this paper, a centralized and a decentralized MPC scheme for the
control of an urban traffic network are presented, using the S model
as prediction model. We claim that with a decentralized MPC scheme it
would be possible to control larger urban traffic networks, especially
where due the growth of the number of variables and non-linearities of
the urban traffic model, it would not be feasible to implement the
centralized scheme in real time.
