On the other hand. it is a very important issue to reduce the power losses in photovoltaic systems. Many available commercial PV modules have been used. However, since their characteristics are not unique and on-site testing of PV system is costly. time-consumed and highly dependent on the prevailing weather conditions. a real-time simulator becomes an important tool to support the research and development in PV system. The impact of operating conditions on different solar cells performance should be well understood at optimal operating points to increase the efficiency of photo voltaic systems. This paper firstly explores the relationships between solar intensity and operating temperature variations and key solar cell paramrters for commercial available photovoltaic modules. The results show that the characteristics of different solar cell technologies at maximum power point (MPP) have different trends in current-voltage characteristic. In this reason a robust real-time simulator is very important for different solar cell technologies. Then this paper presents intelligent real-time simulator for simulating and testing the effect of the fluctuation of irradiance level and cell temperature on the MPP performance of PV modules. Intilligent techniques on becoming useful for non-linrar problems because of their symbolic reasoning flexibility and generalization capabilities. There is a trade-off between the complexity of system and efficiency in optimally operating photo voltaic modules. This mrthod is highly drpendent on ANN training process for each cell technology and simply generates control signal required in fuzzy logic controller. The developed realtime simulator has been successfully demonstrated for different commercially available photovoltaic modules.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessANNFuzzy logic controllerMPPPhotovoltaic systemReal-time simulatorConference Object6416231642Q3
