Abstract
This paper presents the variable perturbation and observation(VPO) maximum power point tracking(MPPT) control of the photovoltaic(PV) system considering the shadow influence. The output characteristics of the solar cell is a nonlinear and affected by a temperature, the solar radiation and influence of a shadow. MPPT control is a very important technique in order to increase an output and efficiency of the solar power generation. Conventional perturbation and observation(PO) and incremental conductance(IC) are the method finding MPP by the continued self-excitation vibration. The MPPT control is unable to be performed by rapid output change affected by the shadow. To solve this problem, this paper proposes the VPO MPPT algorithm which changes step size according to output variation. The response characteristics of VPO MPPT algorithm proposed in this paper compares with response characteristics of conventional MPPT algorithm about the radiation, temperature and shadow influence. The validity of the algorithm proposed in this paper prove through the results of the comparisons.
