Maximum Powerpoint Tracking Control Techniques

Описание: This study presents a detailed comparison of various Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithms for photovoltaic (PV) systems under the EN50530 dynamic test procedure. EN50530, recognized as a benchmark for evaluating the performance of PV inverters, simulates real-world irradiance and temperature variations to assess the dynamic tracking efficiency of MPPT controllers. The work analyzes widely used algorithms such as Perturb & Observe (P&O), Incremental Conductance (INC), and advanced methods like Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Fuzzy Logic Control. Performance metrics such as tracking speed, steady-state oscillations, and overall efficiency are evaluated to determine their suitability for modern PV systems. The results highlight the strengths and limitations of each approach under dynamic environmental conditions, providing insights for selecting MPPT strategies in practical PV inverter designs.
