dc.description.abstractOptimal photovoltaic array patterns are developed to reduce losses under partial shading conditions and the performance of the developed system is investigated using MATLAB based simulation software. The approached design is a passive design in which following conclusions are arrived. 1. The OTCT interconnections reduce partial shading losses and smooth the P-V characteristic, thus avoiding a complicated Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm. 2. It reduces the possibility of turning ON bypass diodes; thus, they can be avoided in some situations. However, the OTCT interconnection increases the complexity of installation and it may require more labor time. Also, the OTCT interconnection may require additional wires to interconnect the modules. 3. The proposed design is meant to dynamically reconfigure the photovoltaic array in real time to reduce partial shading losses. The reconfigurable array reduces partial shading losses caused by difficult-to-predict sources such as clouds and snow. 4. It reduces the land and installation requirements in large photovoltaic farms. However, the reconfigurable array requires switches, sensors and controllers which add to the installation cost.en_US
