碩士 === 國立東華大學 === 電機工程學系 === 93 === Solar energy had developed for about forty years. The low efficiency of transformation and high cost in solarsystem has brought about being unacceptable. In this thesis, we implement a self-tracking solar system calculating the angle of sun by Neural Networks to improve the efficiency of transformation. Solar orbit functions are complex mathematical functions. The angle of the solar orbit are various for different day and locations. Without specialized astronomical background, it is hard to simplify the equations of the solar orbit in to reduce the compute implemented by microcontroller. Because of the cheap and powerful characteristics, microcontroller has been widely used in many fields. But low operating speed and small memory space of microcontrollers become the main drawbacks for system control applications. We use a Neural Networks to approximate solar orbit functions and to find out a structure that can be implemented in our microcontroller.
