Nowadays power supply systems based on photovoltaic cells have two main drawbacks even the primary energy is free and renewable. They are production cost and efficiency. In order to increase their efficiency should be interesting that the energy transfer between cells and load was done at maximum level. In this paper an overview of control techniques oriented to obtain the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is presented. Then a specific method is fully developed and finally, some simulation and experimental results are also included.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
