Photovoltaic Maximum Power Point Tracking System Based on an Improved MPPT Algorithm

Huang Zhuo-xing

Abstract

A modified adaptive hill climbing algorithm was proposed for the photovoltaic maximum power point tracking.The sysytem performance was evaluated by experiments and simulations in Matlab/Simulink.The results show that with the algorithm,the system can track the maximum power point smoothly and quickly,and has good adaptability to problems like degradation of the photovoltaic illumination.
