A New Ken-Ken Puzzle Pattern Based Reconfiguration Technique for Maximum Power Extraction in Partial Shaded Solar PV Array

Solar Photovoltaic array may often be subjected to partial shading, which may lead to uneven row current and creates local maximum power point on the power-voltage characteristics.One of the effective approaches to dilute the concentration of partial shading is the array reconfiguration technique.This study proposes a ken-ken puzzle-based reconfigu
