Abstract: This paper provides a literature survey of maximum power point tracking applied to the photovoltaic power system. To maximize the PV array output power MPPT algorithm is used in PV systems irrespective of temperature and irradiation of the weather and electrical characteristics of the load. The load resistance should match the source input resistance to increase the power flow from the photovoltaic systems. This paper presents a comprehensive review of maximum power point tracking techniques with various advantages and drawbacks of each technique are identified for different weather conditions. This manuscript would serve as a convenient reference for future work in maximum power tracking control.
Keywords: PV module, maximum power point tracking (MPPT), photovoltaic (PV) power system, DC-DC converter.
