This paper presents the simulation and analysis of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control with modified firefly algorithm (MFA) for photovoltaic (PV) system. The availability of solar energy varies widely with ambient temperature and different atmospheric conditions and hence the maximum power point (MPP) of PV system is not stable. Therefore, a MPPT controller is needed to operate the PV ...

The excursion of maximum power point always exists due to nonlinear and time-varying characteristics of photovoltaic (PV) generation. To solve this problem, the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control strategy based on generalized predictive control (GPC) is put forward. Firstly, the theory and feature of PV cell is analyzed, and the MPPT control model is constituted based on Boost circuit....
