Abstract

Abstract This paper introduces an Golden Section Search based algorithm, along with an single input multi output DC-DC converter for photovoltaic systems. In contemplation for photovoltaic (PV) systems to escalate their efficiency of power generation, it is mandatory to locate the Maximum power point (MPP) under all possible illumination conditions. Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller is expected to obtain the MPP irrespective of the device and climatic changes. The basic principle and the implementation of the system is elaborated in this paper, along with an comparison of different hill-climbing algorithms. The analytic and simulated results show that the new method has the advantages of fast convergence, noise-resistance, and robustness.
