Shade dispersion-based photovoltaic array configurations for performance enhancement under partial shading conditions

Recently, the partial shading conditions (PSCs) and its impact on the performance of photovoltaic (PV) systems have motivated to explore novel approach to minimize the PSC adverse effect. In this context, the existing PV arrays are reconfigured to overcome the effects of PSCs. This paper presents a comprehensive and comparative study of existed total cross-tied (TCT) configuration with a novel Latin square puzzle-based TCT configuration called...
