Coventional methods for obtaining origin-destina- tion(OD) trip matrix in urban areas are prone to con- siderable sampling error. For these reasons several researchers try to develop methods for estimating OD matrix from traffic count data. The purpose of this thesis lies in proposing a new estimating approach which needsless data. This reseach is divided into two parts. The first part we derived the feasible trip matrix set. Then, we calibrate the parameter of entropy model by means of improving iteratively the parameter to minimize the errors between estimated trip matrix and the feasible trip matrix set. Finally, we estimate trip matrix. The second part we develop a calibrating method which is based on the sensitivity analysis of CDA model. The calibrating method is to minimize the errors between the estimated link flow and the observed link flow by improving iteratively the para- meter. Finally, we estimate trip matrix.
