The voltage regulation of a grid-tied PV system is constantly perturbed for the maximum power point tracking (MPPT), the transients of which determine the dynamic MPPT efficiency. Meanwhile, the PV-link voltage ripple coupled from the DC to single-phase AC power conversion adversely affects the static MPPT efficiency. Thus, optimal dynamic and steady-state performance is necessary to maximize the solar energy harvest. This brief proposes a novel adaptive mechanism preserving the advantages of two observers: the classical extended state observer and reduced-order generalized proportional integral observer. Simulation and experimental results prove the enhanced performance regarding the overshoot-free fast transient response and steady state against disturbances, even with small input capacitance. Meanwhile, the observer switching happens seamlessly through the proposed mechanism, which is confirmed analytically and experimentally.
