| Özet |
| This study involves the design and implementation of a maximum power point tracker (MPPT) based active soft switching (SS) cascaded boost converter. The analysis, design, simulation, and implementation of the active SS cascaded boost converter used in the system were carried out. Under rapidly changing solar irradiation conditions, it was observed that the main and auxiliary switches operated under SS conditions. This reduced switching losses and increased the efficiency of the converter. The proposed converter was compared with a hard switching (HS) converter in terms of efficiency, and it was proven that the proposed converter provided higher efficiency. In addition, the proposed converter achieved the desired high output voltage at a low duty cycle. In the system, maximum power was extracted from photovoltaic (PV) panels and transferred to the load. The perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm was used … |
