Type: article
Abstract: ABSTRACT This article introduces a third‐order super‐twisting sliding mode control (Gen‐STSMC) algorithm designed for the secure operation of a grid‐connected photovoltaic (PV) system. The improved method changes the traditional super‐twisting sliding mode control (STSMC) technique by incorporating both a linear term and a higher power term to reduce convergence time and chattering effects. This strategy generates the optimal control signals to regulate the output power of the PV system by compensating the state‐dependent uncertainties using the linear and growing term. The controller's stability analysis is conducted to demonstrate its rapid convergence compared to PI and conventional STSMC scheme. A comparative simulation study against PI and STSMC is conducted to showcase the controller's rapid convergence and robust performance in various grid‐connected PV system scenarios. Experimental tests are also performed to validate the controller's effectiveness in maintaining stable power generation in the presence of environmental fluctuations and DC link voltage variations.
