Abstract :
This paper introduces a new MPPT control method for solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation systems. The proposed method include its ability to perform MPPT using only a single solar cell voltage detection sensor and simultaneously predicting the voltage necessary for load voltage control, which is essential to real systems. As a result, this control method offers advantages of the simplified hardware configuration and the low cost.
