This paper presents the modified Fibonacci search based MPPT scheme for a solar photo voltaic array (SPVA) under partial shaded conditions. The real Fibonacci search based MPPT fails to track the global peak (GP) under partial shaded conditions. This paper improves the method so that the proposed method tracks GP for all the shaded conditions. It is checked for different shading patterns through simulation and verified experimentally.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
