New improved MPPT based on artificial neural network and PI controller for photovoltaic applications

This paper details an maximum power point tracking (MPPT) approach based on artificial neural network (ANN) to track the produced by a PV panel. is rapid and accurate for following (MPP) during changes in weather conditions such as solar irradiation temperature. A system structure including MPPT controller studied, designed, simulated this work. The aim of use technique develop applications. To increase performance ANN-MPPT controller, proportional integral (PI) also included. In addition, ANN-based compared conventional perturb observe (P&O) method. analyze results, simulations are performed using MATLAB software.
