Abstract
A device, method, and non-transitory computer readable medium for a finite-time sliding mode maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control system for a photovoltaic (PV) array includes a PV array configured to generate a current I, a pulse width modulator (PWM) connected to receive the current Iand a voltage. The PWM is configured to execute a perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm and generate a maximum power point signal. The maximum power point signal is configured to modulate DC voltage Vaccording to a duty cycle D defined by the P&O algorithm. The MPPT control system includes a finite time sliding mode controller (FTSMC) configured to receive the Iand a voltage and generate a reactive power control signal U. The FTSMC includes a particle swarm optimization to determine and apply optimum gain parameters to FTSMC to generate reactive power control signal Uand minimize voltage error signals for each phase.
