Background. Studies on the current state and development trends of urban ground public electric transportation in Russia highlight the urgent need for innovative technologies. These innovations should focus on designing and operating new types of rolling stock, traction electrical equipment, and promising types of electric traction. At the same time, special attention should be paid to building autonomous control systems for electric transportation using artificial intelligence technologies. Aim. This study aims to explore the application of neural networks to develop algorithms for effectively controlling the electrical engineering complex of traction electrical equipment in urban ground rail electric transport. Materials and Methods. The research utilized data from studies on the traction electrical equipment modes of rolling stock. These studies were conducted through both computer simulations and field experiments under real operating conditions of urban electric transport using different control algorithms. By applying probability theory and mathematical statistics, the analysis identified the correlations between operational and energy parameters of rolling stock movement and the operational mode of its traction electrical equipment. Results. The identified correlation dependencies informed the design of an effective network architecture, including its size and complexity, as well as the composition of their training samples. This led to the development of an original, simplified algorithm for determining effective control parameters for the electrical complex of traction electrical equipment during the movement of a vehicle on a given section of track. Conclusion. The research concluded that using “simple” neural networks for calculating the parameters of effective control of traction electrical equipment operation modes in urban electric transport provides higher speed and sufficient accuracy compared to complex neural network models. These results are valuable for developers of intelligent control systems for streetcar transportation.
