Design of an efficient DC-DC converter for solar energy conversion by Mohamed Ali Ibrahim.

“…Solar panel voltage and current are continuously monitored by a closed-loop discrete based control system, and the duty cycle of the booster converter continuously adjusted to extract maximum power. The goal of this project is to perform a systematic analysis, modeling and evaluation of the key subsystems or components of a solar array system and to develop an optimal tracking and control strategy.…”
