Improving the dynamic performances of an MPPT controller for a Photovoltaic system using fuzzy logic
Abstract
This paper deals with analysis, modeling, and simulation of a Photovoltaic (PV) system with an intelligent Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) controller based on fuzzy logic and to compare the dynamic performances: rapidity and stability of a fuzzy controller with the traditional controller based on the “Perturb and Observe” algorithm (P&O). The system is simulated under Simulink/Matlab environment. The simulation results show that the fuzzy MPPT controller is faster and more stable during abrupt changes in irradiation values.
