Abstract :
The field of photovoltaic has an amazing development for past two decades with clean and environment friendly nature, non conventional and renewable energy source. To increase the solar efficiency 90° angle should be maintained between panels and sun rays and to maintain this angle throughout the day solar tracking arrangement is necessary. In this paper a LQR based integral controller for angular position of sun tracking is introduced. LQR based methods for sun tracking proposed in this paper. The LQR model is designed by MATLAB/SIMULINK. The simulation result have come feasible for real implementation.
