Abstract This paper briefs about partial shading condition and different methods in literature which can be
used under partial shading condition. This will be helpful for all who want the idea of partial shading condition
and also get a fair idea about different techniques available and also update themselves with current happenings
about MPPT.

1. Introduction
Despite the concerns of solar power generation being
costing more than other conventional methods of power
generation. Commercialization of PV power systems in
happening at a rapid pace throughout the world. MPP
tracker decides the efficiency of any PV system. Research
communities are attracted towards MPPT because of its
simplicity yet complex under partial shading condition.
Many algorithms have been developed in the past like
P&O, IC but they cannot locate real MPP and get stuck
with local MPP.. Many alterations to conventional and
also new algorithms have been proposed to track the
GMPP.
The content on MPPT has increased so much recently
that it is difficult for any researcher to update himself with
the literature unless precise summaries are not provided.
In this paper only significant work has been cited and
papers with minor modifications may not be included in
reference list. Apologies are offered to authors.

where d(k) is duty cycle and () is step-size(fixed or
adaptive).
The HC method is also known as direct duty cycle
technique. Authors of [26] utilize HC in buck converter
battery charging PV system, in [27], the authors apply HC
for y back inverter; authors of [28] utilize HC on a high
gain inverter. In [29], HC is applied in parallel connected
MPPT system. Authors in [30] suggested three-level
boosting MPPT control; authors of [31] proposed fully
adaptive HC. The algorithm gets stuck at the local peaks,
so, modifications are required. In [32], duty cycle sweep
