该研究提出了一种实用的试错法来解决基于警戒线的收费的最优收费设计问题，其中只需要在收费警戒线的进入环节上自主收集交通量计数。随着车辆到基础设施(V2I)设施的快速发展和采用，自主收集这些数据变得非常方便。本文进一步考虑了基于警戒线的收费的两个实际性质：一个收费警戒线的每一入口的通行费是相同的；为了维持警戒线区域内的交通状况，应该限制进入一个警戒线的总流量。然后，利用具有非对称路段行程时间函数的随机用户均衡模型来评估每种可行的收费模式。基于最优收费模式的变分不等式(VI)模型，提出了一种理论上收敛的试错法，该方法只需要交通量统计数据。最后，通过一个数值网络算例对该方法进行了验证。
This study proposes a practical trial-and-error method to solve the optimal toll design problem of cordon-based pricing, where only the traffic counts autonomously collected on the entry links of the pricing cordon are needed. With the fast development and adoption of vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) facilities, it is very convenient to autonomously collect these data. Two practical properties of the cordon-based pricing are further considered in this article: the toll charge on each entry of one pricing cordon is identical; the total inbound flow to one cordon should be restricted in order to maintain the traffic conditions within the cordon area. Then, the stochastic user equilibrium (SUE) with asymmetric link travel time functions is used to assess each feasible toll pattern. Based on a variational inequality (VI) model for the optimal toll pattern, this study proposes a theoretically convergent trial-and-error method for the addressed problem, where only traffic counts data are needed. Finally, the proposed method is verified based on a numerical network example.
