Nonlinear Minimization Algorithm for Determining the Solar Cell Parameters with Microcomputers
Abstract
A nonlinear least-squares optimization algorithm based on the Newton model modified with Levenberg parameter, is described for the extraction of the five illuminated solar cell parameters from the experimental data. An initialization routine based on the reduced nonlinear least-squares technique in which only two parameters have to be initialized, is introduced to overcome the difficulty in initializing the cell parameters. The program when incorporated into a microcomputer-based data acquisition software, allows an in-situ theoretical modelling of solar cells in laboratories. Results obtained for a commercial solar cell and a module are given.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
