In perturb and observe algorithm we find that the after 7. Ns 36
reaching at maximum power point, the system oscillates
around it and results in reducing efficiency. Therefore an
improved perturb and observe algorithm reduces the
drawbacks of conventional perturb and observe algorithm
and improves efficiency. In this algorithm we determine an
additional measurement of power at midpoint of control
period [13].
Now we will discuss about the simulation results of 4. 800 22.61 23.24

power, current and voltage at different irradiance level
respectively.
The table I below shows the system parameters which
gives the values of different parameters such as ideality
factor, voltage at MPP (VMPP), current at MPP (IMPP), open
circuit voltage (Voc), short circuit current (Isc), number of
cells (Ns).
As it can be observed from the table II that the values
of power at different irradiance levels for both conventional
and improved P&O algorithm are shown.
