“…Each technique has its own set of strengths and weaknesses and its own method of tracking the MPP. The conventional methods are the Perturb and Observe (P&O) [1] and incremental conductance (IC) [2] methods, mathematical methods such as curve fitting [3] and beta MPPT [4], measurement-based methods such as look-up table [5] and current sweep [6], constant parameter methods such as fractional open circuit voltage [7] and fractional short circuit current [8] methods, trial and error methods such as gradient descent method [9] and variable inductance method [10], optimization techniques like genetic algorithm [11], ant colony optimization [12], practical swarm optimization [13], gray wolf optimiza-tion [14], and cuckoo search optimization [15], intellectual methods like an artificial neural network [16], fuzzy logic control [1], and ANFIS [1,9] are listed in the literature.…”
