Abstract:Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms are very important for the PV systems because they attract the points of maximum power at any conditions of the varying temperature and irradiation and subsequently decrease the PV array cost. This paper presents an improved MPPT technique for the PV system using particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm comparing with the conventional MPPT methods using perturb and observe (P&O) and incremental conductance (I_C). MATLAB simulations are carried out under th… Show more
