  • Abstract
    In order to improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of photovoltaic (PV) generation systems, commonly used the solar automatic tracking control system to maximize the system get more solar energy and Increase the conversion efficiency. To make fully utilizing full the solar energy and improve the traditional solar tracking control effect, Designed a novel digital solar automatic tracking controller was designed and presented in this paper, which used advanced 16-bit digital signal controller(DSC) as the control center chip, by collection the accurate position sensor signal as feedback, with the time to automatically adjust the position of solar panels, then automatic efficiently track the sun to receive the maximum solar radiation and the highest photoelectric conversion efficiency.The experimental results are presented to confirm the feasibility and effectiveness of the designed controller.
