Monitoring of Distributed Power Harvesting Systems Using DC Power Sources

TL;DR: A monitoring system and method for monitoring performance of individual powers sources in a distributed power source system is presented in this paper, where a monitoring module is coupled to each of the power sources or to each string of serially connected power sources to monitor and collect data regarding current, voltage, temperature and other environmental factors at the power source.
