"A novel strategy for the MPPT in a photovoltaic system via Sliding Modes Control"

The following MATLAB files are required to reproduce the results presented in the paper "A novel strategy for the MPPT in a photovoltaic system via Sliding Modes Control": For Section "Multiple and Linear Regressions" 1. Script: GenerateModels.mThis .m file contains a script that obtains the coefficients of the linear models of the current and voltage references for the maximum power tracking algorithms (V_MPP_MR, I_MPP_MR and I_MPP_LR) predicted from Ir and Tc of the PV panel. The script also plots Figures 5, 6 and 7 using these coefficients. 2. MAT file: dataset_MPPT_references.matThis .mat file contains the data set used by the GenerateModels.m script. The file contains a matrix with 64111 rows and 4 columns (Ir, Tc, V_MPP, and I_MPP). Each row contains the values of V_MPP and I_MM for a given pair of Irradiance (Ir) and Temperature (Tc). Note that in order to run script 1, the MAT file must be in the same directory. For Sections “Numerical simulations results” and “Comparison with P&O, INC and ANN-PID algorithms” Simulink file: MPPT_Algorithms.slx This .slx file contains all the elements to reproduce the simulations of the different MPPT algorithms addressed in the paper. The simulation considers a Renesola JC250 PV panel, a Boost converter constitutes an interface between the panel and the fixed load. Both the .slx and .m files need Simulink Matlab 2018b version 2018b to run.
