Power versus voltage curves of partial shading photovoltaic (PV) systems contain several local peaks (LPs) and one global peak (GP). Most conventional maximum power point tracker (MPPT) techniques may not follow the GP under conditions (PSC). The use metaheuristic such as bat algorithm (BA) particle swarm optimization (PSO) can overcome these obstacles.

Under partial shading (PS) condition, the P-V curve becomes more complex where many peaks (one global maximum peak [GMP] and other local [LMPs]) are generated. This GMP changes with time under a time-variant PS; this is called dynamic GMP. Conventional particle swarm optimization (PSO) can track same PS effectively. Nevertheless, it cannot because all particles will be concentrated at first caught. In addition, using PSO as power point tracker (MPPT) technique suffers from obvious...
