Abstract :
In this paper, we focus on the dual-axis solar-tracker control problem, study the algorithm of solar position, and design a predictive controller to make the location of solar panels track the sun in a smooth and accurate way, which is on the premise of the constraint conditions. Use MATLAB / SIMULINK software to complete the location of solar panels predictive control simulation. The simulation results show that the predictive controller designed in this paper turn out to be a good tracking performance under the premise. Additionally, use the configuration software as system monitoring software.
