Besides that, the P&O and the FLC algorithms were tested
under varying solar irradiance and at a constant temperature of
25oC, The solar irradiance changes from 1 to 0.25 kW/m2 with
every decremental of 0.25 kW/m2. The PV power waveforms
generated by the testing are shown in Fig. 11. It can be noticed
that the PV power waveforms generated by P&O algorithm
are smooth, while the PV power waveforms generated by FLC
algorithm established a lot of ripples at each step.
