Abstract
In this article, the modeling and simulation of the adaptive sun tracking system used for an electric unmanned ground vehicle is carried out. The power supply of the vehicle is an electric one, supported by a photovoltaic (PV) panel with solar tracker, which is positioned on the upper platform of the vehicle (practically, the tracking system thus defined is one with mobile base). The main feature of the adaptive tracking mechanism consists in its ability to correlate the predefined tracking law (which it is designed as system would be one with fixed base) with the random movement of the vehicle. The mechatronic model contains both mechanical and electronic (control) elements, being conceived and analyzed in virtual prototyping environment by using the MBS software package ADAMS.
