The present thesis was born as part of a joint project between the CubeSat PoliTo Team of Politecnico di Torino and the European Space Agency (ESA). The goal of this collaboration is to continue the development of an All Electric Cubesat Test Platform able to perform several types of tests on miniaturized electric propulsion systems. The desired outcome is to assert the mutual interaction between the platform itself and the electric propulsion systems in order to characterize their static and dynamic behavior in different conditions. The collaboration has started with the detailed study of the state-of-the-art of the project, which already was at its second iteration.
