AI based MPPT Controller for Solar PV System

Abstract

This article discusses Artificial intelligence based Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) for solar Photo-voltaics based system. MPPT is used to improve the efficiency as well as to raise the output through the photovoltaic system through continuous tracking of MPP. The work demands the use of fuzzy logic control technology; hence the PV-cell is interfaced with a DC step-up converter connected with a dc load. Boost converters convert the output of low voltage DC to output of high voltage DC. Following taken through the solar panel are thermal factor like temperature and isolation. The validation of the proposed controller is also discussed.
