Induction Characteristics of a Solar Cell on the Ground Plane from Radiated Electromagnetic Disturbances

Induction characteristic of a solar cell to radiated electromagnetic disturbance has been studied experimentally and theoretically in order to clarify the antenna effect of the solar cell. First, we try to confirm the validity of the measurement method using the semi-anechoic chamber. The examination including the ground plane is necessary to specify about the emission standard of the entire photovoltaic generation system. We compared with the measurement and the calculation results for the radiation and the induction characteristics by using the dipole antenna of our own making, and the validity of the measurement and the calculation method was confirmed. Next, we measured the induced voltages of the PV cell actually used, and those are compared with each other. Finally, the calculated induction characteristic for the horizon +tal direction on the side face agrees with that measured.
