Abstract :
A digitally regulated solar-array represents a new concept in high-voltage power supply regulation, A mathematical model of the key elements of such a regulator is presented. It can be used in the performance evaluation of the interface between such a power source and a typical load. A range of load conditions and source states can be simulated. The model permits easy incorporation of source performance changes e.g. changes to solar-cell volt-ampere characterisitics due to temperature or due to radiation degradation.
