Variable parameter resized zero attracting least mean fourth control for grid-tied pv system

Abstract

This paper presents the variable parameter resized zero attracting least mean fourth (VP-RZA-LMF) control algorithm for grid-tied photovoltaic (PV) system. The proposed control algorithm is superior over the conventional control algorithms in terms of swift response and handling the irregular nature of solar irradiations. The DC bus voltage control is incorporated in voltage source converter (VSC) control. The boost converter utilizes the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm for producing its gating sequence to keep PV array voltage constant.
