A MATLAB-simulink-based solar photovoltaic array (SPVA) module with MPPT
2013 International Conference on Emerging Trends in Communication, Control, Signal Processing and Computing Applications (C2SPCA), 2013The performance of a solar photovoltaic array (SPVA) is dependent upon the temperature and irradiance level and it is necessary to study the characteristics of photovoltaic (PV) array. To utilize PV power or extract maximum power from PV array, the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique is essential to study and implement.

A cell-to-module-to-array detailed model for photovoltaic panels
Solar Energy, 2012Abstract This paper presents a modified current–voltage relationship for the single-diode model. The single-diode model has been derived from the well-known equivalent circuit for a single photovoltaic (PV) cell. A cell is defined as the semiconductor device that converts sunlight into electricity. A PV module refers to a number of cells connected in

Modified particle swarm optimization method for MPPT in photovoltaic module arrays
2016 IEEE 14th International Conference on Industrial Informatics (INDIN), 2016This paper first is to study the output characteristics of partial photovoltaic module array under shading. Then, it applies the modified particle swarm optimization (MPSO) to track the maximum power point (MPP) of characteristic curve with peaks. The MPSO makes the weighting and cognition learning factor decrease along with the increasing of iteration

Removal of the hot-spot problem in photovoltaic modules and arrays
Solar Cells, 1991Abstract High power photovoltaic generators are installed nowadays. Reliability of continuous operation of this system is the prime consideration. Shadowing and thermal disequilibrium are the major constraints. Shadowing is the normal event in a photovoltaic system, causing thermal disequilibrium which produces excess heat at the shadowed cell.

Development of Field-Applicable Health Monitoring Method for Photovoltaic Module Array
PHM Society Asia-Pacific Conference, 2017Solar cell modules are connected in serial and parallel in a photovoltaic system. All the solar cell modules degrade over time and the most degraded module in a string decide the output level of the string. In this study, we suggest a heath monitoring methods which enable to detect the most degraded module in a string without separating the module from
