Development of a fixed-order \(H_{\infty }\) controller for a robust P&O-MPPT strategy to control poly-crystalline solar PV energy systems
摘要
This paper presents a novel approach to modeling and controlling a solar photovoltaic conversion system(SPCS) that operates under real-time weather conditions. The primary contribution is the introduction of an uncertain model, which has not been published before, simulating the SPCS’s actual functioning. The proposed robust control strategy involves two stages: first, modifying the standard Perturb and Observe (P&O) algorithm to generate an optimal reference voltage using real-time measurements of temperature, solar irradiance, and wind speed. This modification leads to determining and linearizing the nonlinear current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the photovoltaic (PV) array near standard test conditions (STC), resulting in an uncertain equivalent resistance used to synthesize an overall model. In the second stage, a robust fixed-order
