Abstract
The present document covers the modeling and control of a tram that runs free of overhead lines, and draws the power from a battery pack. The goal of this works is to derive two control strategies, that can then be compared. The first strategy is closer to the conservative approach taken by the industry. The second one, is what is known as Model Predictive Control. The thesis covers the modeling of the tram first, and then the design of the controllers. The conservative strategy includes a series of linear controllers and makes use of EKF as estimators. Simulation results are shown. The MPC strategy is covered and setup. However, no results are shown.
