Comparison between P&O and P.S.O methods based MPPT algorithm for photovoltaic systems

Maximum power point tracking (M.P.P.T) considered having a notable role to take out power from photovoltaic (PV) system. Literatures propose a lot of MPPT algorithms that can go after the maximum power point. Indeed this paper report a comparative study between perturb and observe (PandO) as conventional method and the non conventional particle swarm optimization (PSO) method using same load and weather conditions. Simulink is used to program algorithms that run on the Arduino UNO, an inexpensive, open-source microcontroller board, features Atmel ATmega328P microcontroller that provides digital, analog connectivity and serial communications. This technique allows us a real time parameter tuning and signal monitoring of running applications.
