A Maximum Power Point Tracking Technique for Partially Shaded Photovoltaic Systems in Microgrids (2013, background): “ever, PV systems suffer from a major drawback which is the nonlinearity between the output voltage and current particularly under partially shaded conditions [15].”
Control and Circuit Techniques to Mitigate Partial Shading Effects in Photovoltaic Arrays (2012, methodology): “Under uniform insolation, the characteristic curve of a PV array presents a single power maximum [7]–[9] which can be tracked using one of several well-known maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques (e.”
Cascaded DC–DC Converter Photovoltaic Systems: Power Optimization Issues (2011, background): “Recent works reflect the interest of designing MPPT methods able to track multiple peaks under rapidly changing irradiance conditions [18], [19].”
Optimal Photovoltaic Array Reconfiguration to Reduce Partial Shading Losses (2013, background): “Moreover, it requires more complicated control architectures [14]–[16].”
A New Technique for Tracking the Global Maximum Power Point of PV Arrays Operating Under Partial-Shading Conditions (2012, background): “The connection of PV cells and modules in parallel, which is proposed in [8] in order to avoid the effect of partial shading, is applicable only in low-power PV systems (e.”
