About this Journal

IET Electrical Systems in Transportation is a fully open access journal that invites original research and review articles strongly aligned with any aspect of electrical transport, including but not limited to:

All aspects of the hybrid, more or all electric propulsion systems or drivetrains:

• Electrical propulsion drive system
• Onboard electrical generation systems, or starter/generators
• Energy storage systems
• Fault-tolerant technology design or control
• System level integration, reconfiguration, protection or control
• Health prognostics and diagnostics, or condition monitoring
• Superconducting technologies

Advanced load systems:

• Actuators design
• Electric anti-icing solutions
• Hybrid or all electric loads

Onboard ancillary systems:

• System-level communication
• Comms or sensor fault-tolerance or redundancy
• Cyber security issues

Interactions of electric transport with the land-based power system:

• Traction pantograph systems
• Electric train, or trams powered by the power system
• Energy storage charging infrastructure
• Impact of electric transport on the land-based power system
• Vehicle-to-grid, grid-to-vehicle systems
• Multi-vehicle charger system or roadside charger design, and control

Forms of electric transport of interest include road rail, air and water, and commercial personal, civil and military transport systems.
