Sun tracking system and method using solar array

摘要

A sun tracking system and method for tracking the position of the sun. The sun tracking system includes an on-board computer for controlling each device; a solar array driving unit for rotating a solar array and for transmitting an array angle to the on-board computer; an array tilt mechanism for adjusting a tilt of the solar array and for transmitting an tilt angle to the on-board computer; the solar array connected to the solar array driving unit and to the array tilt mechanism, for supplying a current and a voltage to a peak power tracker; and the peak power tracker for supplying a power generated from the solar array to each part of a satellite and for supplying a peak power to the on-board computer.
