This paper present Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) controller for solving partial shading problems in photovoltaic (PV) systems. It is well-known that partial shading is often encountered in PV system issue with many consequences. In this research, PV array is connected using TCT (total cross-tied) configuration including sensors to measure voltage and currents. The sensors provide inputs f...

This paper proposes an approach based on artificial neural networks (ANN) to control a grid-connected photovoltaic system (PVS) under partial shading (PS) conditions. In PS conditions, the P-V curve exhibits multiple peaks, with only one representing global maximum power point (GMPP), and others local points (LMPP). Traditional Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) methods are unable identify GMP...

This paper presents an in-depth analysis and investigation on the performance of static photovoltaic (PV) array configurations subjected to various partial shading conditions (PSCs). Under PSCs, electrical characteristics PV modules are critically monitored reasons for their behavioral changes highlighted. By doing so, this study aims improve efficiency systems by minimizing mismatch losses det...

Partial shading in photovoltaic modules is an important reliability and performance concern for all photovoltaic technologies. In this paper, we show how cell geometry can be used as a design variable for improved shade tolerance and performance in monolithic thin film photovoltaic modules (TFPV). We use circuit simulations to illustrate the geometrical aspects of partial shading in typical mon...

We introduce a novel numerical method for a recently developed perspective Shape-from-Shading model. In order to discretise the corresponding partial differential equation (PDE), Prados et al. employed the dynamical programming principle yielding a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation. We reduce that model to its essential, namely to the underlying Hamilton-Jacobi equation. For this PDE, we propose...

Increasing the effectiveness of photovoltaic (PV) power generation systems is a major barrier to their widespread use. Partial shading conditions (PSCs), which are caused by nearby objects like trees, buildings, and clouds, reduce energy produced PV may be mitigated reconfiguration arrays. A novel approach dubbed modified series-parallel (MSP) setup, was suggested in this paper compares its per...

The presence of bypass diodes in photovoltaic (PV) arrays can mitigate the negative effects partial shading conditions (PSCs), which cause multiple peak characteristics at output. However, conventional maximum power point tracking (MPPT) methods develop errors and detect local (LMPP) instead global (GMPP) under certain circumstances. To address this issue, several artificial intelligence (AI)-b...

The use of solar power in some applications is challenging due to sudden changes irradiance level and the fast occurrence partial shading condition (PSC). For this reason, maximum point tracking (MPPT) methods employed photovoltaic (PV) allow for very detection (MPP) during a condition. This reaction should minimize losses, have minimum steady-state oscillation be accurate. In paper, an analyti...
