Abstract:
In this work, the maximum power point tracking algorithms are designed using High
Speed Integrated Circuit Hardware Description Language. The MPPT algorithm used
is Perturb & Observe method designed and compared with device usage diagrams in
Xilinx ISE 13.4. With the mathematical equation the PV cell is modeled and
simulated in SIMULINK-MATLAB blocks. Simulation tools like ModelSim SE 10.5,
Xilinx ISE 13.4 and SIMULINK-MATLAB are used. The results prove that MPPT
algorithms could be easily implemented using Field Programmable Gate Array
(FPGA) in real time
