This paper proposes the convergence analysis of a sliding-mode version of the MPPT based on ripple correlation control (RCC). The contribution of the paper is a dynamic model, useful to derive a set of design guidelines to tune the sliding-mode RCC-MPPT and achieve a desired dynamic performance under irradiation transients, without a dedicated commissioning phase. The research is based on sliding control theory and it includes both the chattering phenomena analysis and a discussion on the effects of reactive parasitic elements in the PV module. The proposed analysis and design have been validated by Matlab simulations first and then with experimental tests on a 35 W panel with a boost converter charging a 24 V battery. The results support the effectiveness of the proposed modelling procedure and design guidelines, showing good agreement between the model prediction and the experimental transient response.
