Solarenergy is one of the most promising renewable energy resources. Sun trackers cansubstantially improve the electricity production of a photovoltaic (PV) system.

The utilization of renewableenergy resources is the key solution to these problems. Solar energy is one of the primary sources ofclean, abundant and inexhaustible energy, that not only provides alternative energy resources, but also improves environmental pollution.The most immediate and technologically attractive use of solar energy is through photo voltaic conversion. The physics of the PV cell (also called solar cell) is very similar to the classical p-n junction diode. The PV cell converts the sunlight directly into direct current (DC) electricity by the photovoltaic effect 1,2. A PV panel or module is a packaged interconnected assembly of PV cells. In order to maximize the power output from the PV panels, one needs to keep the panels in an optimum position perpendicular to the solar radiation during the day. As such, it is necessary to have it equipped with a Sun tracker. Compared to a fixed panel, a mobile PV panel driven by a Sun tracker may boost consistently the energy gain of the PV panel.Solar tracking is the most appropriate technology to enhance the electricity production of a PV system. To achieve a high degree of tracking accuracy, several approaches have been widely investigated. Generally, they can be classified as either open-loop tracking types based on solar movement mathematical models or closed-loop tracking types using sensor-based feedback controllers 35. In the open-loop tracking approach, a tracking formula or control algorithm is used.Referring to the literature 610, the azimuth and the elevation angles of the Sun were determined by solar movement models or algorithms at the given date, time and geographical information. The control algorithms were executed in a microprocessor controller 11,12. In the closed-loop tracking approach, various active sensor devices, such as charge couple devices (CCDs) 1315 or light dependent resistors (LDRs) 12,1619 were utilized to sense the Suns position and a feedback error signal was then generated to the control system to continuously receive the maximum solar radiation on the PV panel. This paper proposes an empirical research approach on this issue.Solar tracking approaches can be implemented by using single-axis schemes 12,1921, and dual-axis structures for higher accuracy systems 1618,2227. In general, the single-axis tracker with one degree of freedom follows the Suns movement from the east to west during a day while a dual-axis tracker also follows the elevation angle of the Sun. In recent years, there has been a growing volume of research concerned with dual-axis solar tracking systems. However, in the existing research, most of them used two stepper motors 22,23 or two DC motors 16,17,24,25 to perform dual-axis solar tracking. With two tracking motors designs, two motors were mounted on perpendicular axes, and even aligned them in certain directions. In some cases, both motors could not move at the same time 5.Furthermore, such systems always involve complex tracking strategies using microprocessor chips as a control platform. In this work, employing a dual-axis with only single tracking motor, an attempt has been made to develop and implement a simple and efficient control scheme. The two axes of the Sun tracker were allowed to move simultaneously within their respective ranges. Utilizing conventional electronic circuits, no programming or computer interface was needed. Moreover, the proposed system used a stand-alone PV inverter to drive motor and provide power supply. The system was self-contained and autonomous. Experiment results have demonstrated the feasibility of the tracking PV system and verified the advantages of the proposed control implementation.The remainder of the article is organized in the following manner: Section 2 describes the tracking strategies of the developed closed-loop solar tracking system in which a sensor-based feedback controller is used. The detailed architecture of the Sun tracker hardware is proposed in Section 3. In Section 4, a scaled-down laboratory prototype is built and tested. Finally, the main conclusions of this work are drawn in Section 5.2. Developed Closed-Loop Solar Tracking SystemThe block diagram of the developed closed-loop solar tracking system is illustrated in Figure 1, describing the composition and interconnection of the system. For the closed-loop tracking approach, the solar tracking problem is how to cause the PV panel location (output) to follow the sunlight location (input) as closely as possible. The sensor-based feedback controller consists of the LDR sensor, differential amplifier, and comparator. In the tracking operation, the LDR sensor measures the sunlight intensity as a reference input signal. The unbalance in voltages generated by the LDR sensor is amplified and then generates a feedback error voltage. The error voltage is proportional to the difference between the sunlight location and the PV panel location. At this time the comparator compares the error voltage with a specified threshold (tolerance). If the comparator output goes high state, the motor driver and a relay are activated so as to rotate the dual-axis (azimuth and elevation)tracking motor and bring the PV panel to face the Sun. Accordingly, the feedback controller performs the vital functions: PV panel and sunlight are constantly monitored and send a differential control signal to drive the PV panel until the error voltage is less than a pre-specified threshold value. Figure 1. Block diagram of the solar tracking system.The system tracks the Sun autonomously in azimuth and elevation angles. The whole working algorithms are summed up in the flowcharts shown in Figures 2 and 3. The sunlight intensity from four different directions is measured by the LDR-based sensing circuit. The voltages vE, vW, vS and vN are defined as the sensing voltages produced by the east, west, south, and north LDRs respectively. In an attempt to draw maximum power from the PV panel, the azimuth and elevation tracking processes can simultaneously proceed until the PV panel is aligned orthogonally to the sunlight. The tracker installation is not restricted to the geographical location.Figure 2. Flowchart of tracking algorithm for azimuth control.Figure 3. Flowchart of tracking algorithm for elevation control.3. Sun Tracker Hardware DesignFigure 4 presents one of the hardware circuits of the proposed Sun tracker for azimuth tracking. The entire system has two hardware circuits with both of azimuth direction and elevation direction to drive the dual-axis AC motor. The developed Sun tracker is comprised of three modules, which are the LDR-based sensing circuit, comparator and a motor driver with a relay.Figure 4. Complete control circuit diagram of the Sun tracker for azimuth tracking.3.1. LDR-Based Sensing CircuitTo track the sunlight, it is necessary to sense the position of the Sun and for that an electro-optical sensor is needed. The proposed Sun tracker uses the electro-optical sensor for self-calibration. A LDR or photoresistor is a variable resistor whose electrical resistance depends on the intensity of the light falling on it. The LDR resistance decreases with incident light intensity increasing. As seen in the first part of Figure 4, the LDR sensor is a part of the voltage divider circuit in order to give an output voltage.3.1.1. Solar Sensing DeviceThe paper creates a Sun tracker using LDRs with a cylindrical shade as a Sun sensor. Figure 5 shows the designed solar sensing device, which comprises a four-quadrant LDR sensor and a cylinder mounted on a wood-block. The solar sensing device is attached to the PV panel. The East/West LDR and the South/North LDR are respectively used in the detection of azimuth motion and elevation motion of the PV panel. The design of the light sensor is based on the use of the shadow. If the PV panel is not perpendicular to the sunlight, the shadow of the cylinder will cover one or two LDRs and this causes different light intensity to be received by the sensing device.Figure 5. Solar sensing device with a four-quadrant LDR sensor.3.1.2. Creating Feedback Error VoltageThe simple electronic circuit for creating error voltage is presented in the first part of Figure 4. It can be seen that the output voltage of the voltage divider will be lower when the corresponding LDR is shadowed. If one sensor is lighted and the other is shadowed, the differential amplifier amplifies the difference voltage between them. The feedback error voltage can be expressed as:which can be rearranged as follows:If the west LDR is shaded,3.2. ComparatorThe main function of the comparator is to act as a switch to turn on the relay and rotate the motor. A comparator is essentially an operational amplifier (op-amp) operated in an open-loop configuration, which converts a time-varying analog signal into a binary output. As depicted in the second part of Figure 4, the comparator is designed to compare the error voltage with two threshold values. The threshold value is defined as the input voltage at which the output changes states. As shown in Figure 4, there are two threshold values which are given as:The output of the comparator is a high saturated state VH or a low saturated state VL. The saturated output voltages VH and VL may be closed to the supply voltages +VCC and VCC, respectively. The comparator outputs are then expressed as follows:The voltage transfer characteristics of the comparator with ideal op-amps are shown in Figure 6. It is noted that the sensitivity for the tracking system is dominated by the threshold values, which are adjusted by the variable resistor R4 according to the tracking accuracy. As R4 decreases, the tracking accuracy increases. However, the system tracking response will become increasingly oscillatory.Figure 6. Voltage transfer characteristics of the open-loop comparator.3.3. Motor Driver with a Relay As seen in the last part of Figure 4, it is observed that the designed motor driver with a relay consists of two Darlington pairs that provide increased current gain and actuate the relay. If the west LDR is shaded, a feedback error voltage vEW is generated. When vEW VTh1 VTh2, the comparator outputs vPE and vPW go high and low saturated voltages respectively. The transistors Q1 and Q2 will therefore conduct and Q3 and Q4 are in the cutoff state. Referring to Figure 4, transistors Q1 and Q2 operate in the forward-active mode, and the input current or the base current of Q1 is: where VBE is the forward-biased base-emitter voltage of the bipolar transistor. Therefore, the output current can be written as: The parameters 1 and 2 are the common-emitter current gain of the bipolar transistors. The relay is activated by the output current and normally-open contact a1 closes. In this case, thetracking motor rotates clockwise in the azimuth direction and thus the PV panel moves eastward to face the Sun. More specifically, the Sun tracker attempts to adjust the PV panel such that all thevoltages produced by LDRs are nearly equal and balance. As a result, the PV panel is almost perpendicular to the sunlight and has a high energy generation. 5.Conclusions The paper has presented a novel and a simple control implementation of a Sun tracker that employed a single dual-axis AC motor to follow the Sun and used a stand-alone PV inverter to power the entire system. The proposed one-motor design was simple and self-contained, and did not require programming and a computer interface. A laboratory prototype has been successfully built and tested to verify the effectiveness of the control implementation. Experiment results indicated that the developed system increased the energy gain up to 28.31% for a partly cloudy day. The proposed methodology is an innovation so far. It achieves the following attractive features: (1) a simple and cost-effective control implementation, (2) a stand-alone PV inverter to power the entire system, (3) ability to move the two axes simultaneously within their respective ranges, (4) ability to adjust the tracking accuracy, and (5) applicable to moving platforms with the Sun tracker. Theempirical findings lead us to believe that the research work may provide some contributions to the development of solar energy applications.以下是说明文字，正式成文后请删除。外文原稿可以直接使用复印件。
