The pulse-and-glide strategy is proven to be an efficient control design in both car-following [26] and free-driving scenarios, [28] with up to 20% fuel saving. In the PnG strategy, the control of the engine and the transmission determines the fuel-saving performance, and it is obtained by solving an optimal control problem (OCP).
