ESPITIA CUCHANGO, Helbert Eduardo  y  SIERRA VARGAS, Fabio Emiro. Controller optimization for a solar tracking system using differential evolution. Tecciencia [online]. 2015, vol.10, n.18, pp.7-13. ISSN 1909-3667.  https://doi.org/10.18180/tecciencia.2015.18.2.

This paper details the design and implementation of two analog controllers for the solar tracker located in the thermal power plant laboratory at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia. In this study we used differential evolution for the optimization of the controllers. In addition to the design of the controllers, it is possible with this approach to observe the characteristics of this bio-inspired algorithm. As a result, we first present the optimization process and subsequently the dynamic response of the controllers implemented.

Palabras clave : differential evolution; control; optimization; solar power.
