By these equations (1.1) and (1.2), optimum operating
voltage Vs can be certainly obtained according to the change
of solar energy level measured frequently. Fig.3 shows
schematic diagram of calculation. In this figure, upper left
shows the characteristics of solar cell, lower left part shows
characteristics of PWM inverter circuit, and lower right
shows optimal operating voltage related with solar power.
For easy implementation, curve of optimal operating voltage
could be approximated by third order polynomials.
It becomes clear that optimum operating point for maximum
power exists in one point in this figure. According to solar
energy level (shown by L), this power curve change toward
the horizontal and vertical axis. In addition, characteristics
of solar cell is certainly varied according to operating
condition such as temperature. Therefore the new learning
method, which can adsorb characteristic changes, is
necessary.

Fig.6 Relationships between illumination and
operating voltage
In usual applications of solar power system, illumination
level signals are not useful because of no detector installed.
Therefore some methods are necessary so that illuminati0 n
level could be estimated by measured power of conversion
circuit under the specified operating voltage reversibly. This
specified operating voltage is called specific operating
voltage.Fig.7 shows relationship between measured power
and illumination level under the specific operating voltage.
Illumination level at that point is easily distinguished as this
my.
Fig.8 shows relationship between illumination level and
operating voltage.
Therefore, Fig.7 and Fig.8 can lead Fig.9 (relationships
between power under specific operating voltage and
operating voltage).

5. Conclusion
Global warming about earth environmental issues
including energy problem becomes more and more serious
problem in the 2 1st century. Because this issue is related to
the basis of human lives, then global discussions has been
continued in an international conference. But first problem
that must be approached is the elimination of fossil and
nuclear energy, and instead, not only solar power refened in
this paper but also wind and tide power etc. should be used
extensively.
As for solar power energy applications, there is still
serious problems such as how compensated it is under the
quick change of weather. And further efficiency
improvement of conversion device become basic subject we
have confirmed that this proposed technology could enable
the applications of solar power system.
In the future, implementation problem is certainly open
problem to make solar cell device and microprocessor based
learning method together into same chip. If this technology
would be realized, then about more than twice improvement
of solar power efficiency would be achieved.
