A sport inspired kabaddi game optimizer for accurate parameter estimation of solar photovoltaic models
摘要
This paper proposes a Kabaddi Game Optimizer (KGO), a sport-inspired metaheuristic for accurate solar photovoltaic (PV) modelling. KGO models Kabaddi strategies (Dubki and Akraman), adaptive weights and weak-player replacement to balance exploration and exploitation. Its performance is first validated on the CEC 2017 benchmark set against seven well-known optimizers, where KGO consistently attains the best average rank. KGO is then coupled with the Newton–Raphson method to estimate parameters of single, double, and triple diode PV models and a PWP-201 PV module. Using RTC France cell and module data, KGO achieves RMSE values of 7.729857E−04, 7.43146E−04, 7.3771E−04, and 2.0529E−03 for the single-, double-, and triple-diode models, and the PV module, respectively, demonstrating accurate, robust, and fast PV parameter estimation.
