Abstract
This paper presents a new strategy for a robust maximum power point (MPP) tracking fuzzy controller for photovoltaic (PV) systems subject to actuator asymmetric saturation. A DC-DC boost converter is used to connect a PV panel with an output load. The output voltage of the DC-DC boost converter can be adjusted by duty ratio that is limited between 0 and 1. The aim of our control design is to track the MPP under atmospheric condition changes and the presence of the asymmetric saturation of the duty ratio. To minimize tracking error and disturbance effect, the dynamic behaviour of a PV system and its reference model are described by using Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy models. Then, a constrained control based on a fuzzy PI state feedback controller is proposed. The H∞ control approach is used in control design and stability conditions of the closed-loop system are formulated and solved in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, simulation results are given to show the tracking performance of the control design.
