Abstract EN
Photovoltaic (PV) system generates energy that varies with the variation in environmental conditions such as temperature and solar radiation.
To cope up with the ever increasing demand of energy, the PV system must operate at maximum power point (MPP), which changes with load as well as weather conditions.
This paper proposes a nonlinear backstepping controller to harvest maximum power from a PV array using DC-DC buck converter.
A regression plane is formulated after collecting the data of the PV array from its characteristic curves to provide the reference voltage to track MPP.
Asymptotic stability of the system is proved using Lyapunov stability criteria.
The simulation results validate the rapid tracking and efficient performance of the controller.
For further validation of the results, it also provides a comparison of the proposed controller with conventional perturb and observe (P&O) and fuzzy logic-based controller (FLBC) under abrupt changes in environmental conditions.
