Design Steps of Anfis Controller for the Application of PV Generation | Original Article

ABSTRACT:

This paper gives the steps for the design and operation of an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS)-based maximum power point tracking (MPPT) for solar photovoltaic (SPV) energy generation system. The MPPT works on the principle of adjusting the voltage of the PV modules by changing the duty ratio of the Voltage source inverter. The duty ratio of the inverter is calculated for a given solar irradiance and temperature condition by a closed-loop control scheme. The closed-loop control of the VSI regulates the duty ratio and the modulation index to effectively control the injected power and maintain the stringent voltage, current, and frequency conditions. The ANFIS is trained to generate maximum power corresponding to the given solar irradiance level and temperature. The response of the ANFIS-based control system is highly precise and offers an extremely fast response.
