Abstract

Atom search optimization algorithm (ASOA) has recently been explored to develop a novel algorithm for distributed optimization and control. This chapter proposes the ASOA-based design of maximum power point tracking controllers (MPPTCs) for controlling the boost converter voltage to harvest the maximum power and enhance the damping of oscillations in the output power of the photovoltaic power plants. The proposed ASOA-based MPPTCs are PI and fractional-order PI controllers. ASOA is utilized to search for optimal controller parameters by minimizing a candidate time-domain based objective function. The performance of the proposed ASOA-based MPPTCs has been compared to the MPPTCs optimized by grey wolf optimizer (GWO) to demonstrate the superior efficiency of the ASOA-based MPPTCs. Simulation results emphasis on the better performance of the proposed MPPTCs compared to MPPTCs and GWO-based PI- FOPI controllers over a wide range of operating conditions.
