In the PV power system, output of the PV array must contain inherent ripples due to the single-phase inverter. So the function of maximum power point tracking to increase the output efficiency of PV system is degraded. Therefore, to overcome this problem, this paper presents a control strategy for the reducing ripples of the PV array output in grid-connected photovoltaic power system. The proposed control system consists of two loops the maximum power point tracking loop using the perturbation and observation method is used to calculate the reference solar array terminal voltage(Vref) for reducing ripples of the PV array output and the PI control loop is used to regulate the solar array output voltage according to the Vref. The performance of proposing control strategy is analyzed by means of the PSCAD/EMTDC simulation. As a result, we may obtain the high performance of the proposed control strategy.

Under partial shading conditions (PSCs), multiple maximums may be exhibited on the P-U curve of string inverter photovoltaic (PV) systems. Under such conditions, heuristic methods are invalid for extracting a global maximum power point (GMPP); intelligent algorithms are time-consuming; and model-based methods are complex and costly. To overcome these shortcomings, a novel hybrid MPPT (MPF-IP&O) based on a model-based peak forecasting (MPF) method and an improved perturbation and observation (IP&O) method is proposed. The MPF considers the influence of temperature and does not require solar radiation measurements. In addition, it can forecast all of the peak values of the PV string without complex computation under PSCs, and it can determine the candidate GMPP after a comparison. Hence, the MPF narrows the searching range tremendously and accelerates the convergence to the GMPP. Additionally, the IP&O with a successive approximation strategy searches for the real GMPP in the neighborhood of the candidate one, which can significantly enhance the tracking efficiency. Finally, simulation and experiment results show that the proposed method has a higher tracking speed and accuracy than the perturbation and observation (P&O) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) methods under PSCs.

Maximum power point tracking(MPPT) is usually used for a solar power system. Many maximum power tracking techniques have been considered in the past. The microprocessors with appropriate MPPT algorithms are favored because of their flexibility and compatibility with different solar arrays. In this paper, four MPPT algorithms are analyzed and studied. Perturbation and Observation(P&O), Incremental Conductance(IncCond), which are used from the past. Improved P&O and Two-mode , which are developed P&O and IncCond algorithms. Also, the author introduces grid-connected fransformerless PV PCS to apply MPPT control. MPPT efficiency is measured by changing irradiance from $0.1kW/m^2\;to\;1kW/m^2$ and simulation was performed for each MPPT algorithm.

This study compares the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control methods of a thermoelectric generator on vehicles. The researchers conduct comparisons on five different MPPT methods, including a fractional open circuit voltage method, a perturbation and observation (P&O) method, an incremental conductance method, a linear extrapolation-based MPPT (LEMPPT) method, and a LEMPPT/P&O hybrid method. These five MPPT methods are theoretically analyzed in detail, and the comparisons are conducted through MATLAB/Simulink simulation results. The comparison outcomes reveal that linear MPPT methods, including LEMPPT and LEMPPT/P&O hybrid methods, are more suitable for a thermoelectric generator on vehicles than the other MPPT methods examined in this work.

저궤도 위성이 제한된 전력 내에서 임무를 성공적으로 수행하기 위해서는 효율적인 전력생산이 중요하다. 이를 위해 저궤도 소형위성의 전력계에서는 주로 MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) 방식을 사용하여 태양전지에서 생산되는 전력을 조절한다. 본 연구에서는 소형 큐브위성(KAUSAT-5)에 적용될 퍼지 로직 기반의 MPPT 알고리즘을 제안하며, 제안된 방법의 유용성을 확인하기 위해 MATLAB/Simulink와 STK (Systems Tool Kit)를 연동하여 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. Simulink와 STK를 이용하여 위성 궤도와 자세에 따른 태양 광량과 운용모드에 따라 변하는 부하용량에 대해 KAUSAT-5의 두 가지 지향모드에서 EBA(Energy Balance Analysis)를 수행하였고, 이를 통해 제안된 퍼지 로직 기반의 MPPT 알고리즘의 성능을 확인하였다. 제안된 퍼지 로직 기반의 MPPT는 가장 일반적인 방법의 하나인 P&O (Perturbation & Observation)와 성능을 비교하여 유용성을 확인하였다.

일사량과 온도에 의해 태양광 어레이의 최대전력동작점(MPOP)이 결정되며 태양광발전시스템에서 중요하게 고려해야 할 사항 중 하나는 최대전력동작점을 정확하게 추종하도록 하는 것이다. 과거부터 여러 최대전력추종제어기법(MPPT)들이 사용되어 왔지만, 마이크로프로세서를 이용한 최대전력추종제어기법은 다른 태양광 어레이와의 호환성, 적응성 측면에서 유리하다. 이 논문에서는 기존의 P&O, IncCond 알고리즘에 대한 분석과 새로운 히스테리시스밴드 변동 기법을 제안한다. 새로 제안된 제어기법의 우수성을 나타내주기 위하여 저자는 3가지의 기준을 만들어서 각 기법을 비교 및 분석하였다. 첫째로, 정상상태에서의 각 기법의 파형을 살펴보았고, 다음으로 일사량을 급변하였을 경우의 파형을 나타내었고, 마지막으로 일사량에 따른 MPPT 추종효율을 보였다. MPPT 시뮬레이션과 실험은 부스트 컨버터에서 수행하였다.

This paper proposes a simple MPPT control scheme of a Current-Control-Loop Error system Based that can be obtains a lot of advantage to compare with another digital control method, P&O and IncCond algorithm that is applied mostly a PV system. An existent method is needed an expensive processor such as DSP that calculated to change the measure power of a using current and voltage sensor at the once. Therefore, it is applied a small home power generation system that required many expenses. But, a proposed method is easy to solve the cost reduction and power unbalance problems that it is used by control scheme to limit error of a current control of common sensor. This proposed algorithm had verified through a simulation and an experiment on battery charger using PIC that is the microprocessor of a low price.

As the maximum power operating point (MPOP) of photovoltaic (PV) power generation systems changes with varying atmospheric conditions such as solar radiation and temperature, an important consideration in the design of efficient PV system is to track the MPOP correctly. Although the efficiency of these Maximum Power Point Tracking algorithms is usually high, it drops noticeably in case of rapidly changing atmospheric conditions. This paper describes common MPPT control algorithm: Constant Voltage Control, Perturbation and Observation(P&O), Incremental Conductance (IncCnd) and proposes a new MPPT algorithm based on P&O algorithm. The conception and control principles of the proposed MPPT method are explained in detail and its validity of the proposed method is verified through several simulated results. As it doesn't use digital signal processor, this MPPT method has the merits of both a cost efficiency and a simple control circuit design. Therefore, it is considered that the proposed MPPT method is proper to low power, low cost PV applications.
