Abstract
In a photovoltaic system, the maximum power point varies with insolation and cell temperature. Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is implemented to identify the maximum power operating point and subsequently system is operated at that particular operating voltage for maximum power gaining. This algorithm is implemented in charge controllers for extracting maximum available power from PV module. Maximum power point tracking in photovoltaic systems using artificial intelligence methods are very popular. Adaptive- Neuro Fuzzy Inference Systems (ANFIS) are found to be very effective than simple conventional MPPT tracking. In the simulation part, a buck-boost converter feeding a permanent magnet dc motor load is achieved. The accuracy of the overall system depends on the fuzzy rule base and membership functions defined. The performance curves for comparison between MPPT tracking, fuzzy and ANFIS controllers were obtained using MATLAB/Simulink platform. Simulation results show that ANFIS based tracking has better performance in terms of response time, settling time and initial perturbance.
