Conference Proceeding
Ahmed, J., & Salam, Z. (2013). A soft computing MPPT for PV system based on Cuckoo Search algorithm. In 4th International Conference on Power Engineering, Energy and Electrical Drives (558-562). https://doi.org/10.1109/PowerEng.2013.6635669

This paper presents a novel approach to determine the maximum power point (MPP) in Photovoltaic (PV) System using the Cuckoo Search (CS) algorithm. In CS, three samples of voltage are generated randomly over the span of the PV voltage. Based on the L... Read More about A soft computing MPPT for PV system based on Cuckoo Search algorithm.
