Abstract

The basic framework for tuning Genetic Algorithm (GA) is to bring the system to stable condition with proportional Integral controller for DC-DC converter (Buck -Boost Converter) which is applied to PV source. Due to its non-linear characteristics, the performance of the controller needs to be improved in order to improve its efficiency. The gating pulses of the converter uses Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) technique in order to reduce its THD level. The main purpose of PI controller is to bring down the large values of instabilities in the system response and to reduce steady state error which in turns improves the gain and accuracy. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is a search algorithm to solve optimization problems. The controller parameters are optimized to produce reasonable transient response without affecting the stable operation. Output voltage magnitude of DC–DC converter is either greater than or lesser than the input voltage magnitude. Variable DC voltage from PV panel is applied to DC – DC converter to get constant DC output voltage. The modelling of the Proposed system is modelled using MATLAB/SIMULINK and its results are verified.
