Ser. 1671 012008https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12585/10030This paper explores the problem of optimal calculation of electrical parameters in solar cells using three well-known operative points provided by manufacturers considering a single-diode model. These are open circuit, short circuit, and maximum power point; with these points is formulated a nonlinear non-convex optimization problem that deals with the minimization of mean square errors associated with variables evaluated at these points, i.e., open-circuit voltage, short circuit current, and current in the maximum power point, respectively. A sine-cosine algorithm is addressed in this research to solve the resulting optimization problem. Numerical results provided by the sine-cosine algorithm show objective functions lower than 1 × 10−12, which confirms the efficiency and robustness of the proposed approach. All the numerical validations are conducted via MATLAB software.9 páginasapplication/pdfenghttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1742-6596/1671/1/012008info:eu-repo/semantics/lecture10.1088/1742-6596/1671/1/012008Convex optimizationMATLABMean square errorOpen circuit voltageinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 InternacionalUniversidad Tecnológica de BolívarRepositorio Universidad Tecnológica de BolívarLEMB
