Abstract: This paper first presents an overview on traditional Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithms. Traditional algorithm can be easily implemented using analog or digital devices. As traditional algorithms suffer from low efficiency, oscillations in steady state power and poor dynamic performance, a novel MPPT scheme using Linear Tangents based Perturb & Observe (LTP&O) is proposed in this paper. In order to validate their performance, proposed scheme and other traditional algorithms are simulated using Matlab/Simulink. Simulated results provide evidence that the proposed method has better accuracy, increased efficiency, low oscillation, improved steady state and dynamic performance compared to traditional methods.
