Abstract:In recent years, solar energy is effectively utilized as an alternate energy source for generating electricity. Maximum Power Point Tracking(MPPT) is applied to the photovoltaic (PV) system to extract maximum power (MP). Numerous algorithms are developed and implemented to extract the MP under varying environmental conditions. One such algorithm is the Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm(PSO).This article introduces a novel PSO algorithm with Cauchy distribution to track MP from the PV system. It is designed… Show more
