Using PV/wind hybrid systems in the autonomous power of unmanned aerial vehicle control centre

Hybrid power system can be used to reduce energy storage requirements. In this paper, more accurate mathematical models for characterizing PV module, wind generator and battery are proposed. This paper presents the optimal sizing of an autonomous hybrid PV/wind system for unmanned aerial vehicle control centre. Considering various types and capacities of system devices, the configurations which can meet the desired system reliability are obtained by changing the type and size of the devices systems.
