  • Abstract
    This paper shows that the performance of the perturb and observe (P&O) maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm is improved when the electronic converter is correctly controlled. A linearized photovoltaic (PV) array model is used to obtain the transfer function of the electronic converter and to design a voltage compensator for the converter input voltage. A buck converter is used in this work.
