Based on the boost full bridge isolated converter (BFBIC) topology and considering the sudden changes in the external environment, a global maximum power point tracking (GMPPT) control strategy based on an improved gray wolf optimizer (IGWO) algorithm is proposed in this paper. In the strategy, a nonlinear tangent trigonometric function as a convergence factor is integrated into the gray wolf optimizer (GWO) algorithm. In addition, the active-clamp circuit and phase-shift are used to implement the soft switch technology for BFBIC converter in photovoltage (PV) system. Finally, the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) performance on PV system with the proposed IGWO algorithm under static and dynamic partial shading conditions (PSCs) was investigated and compared with other common perturb and observe (P&O), particle swarm optimization (PSO), artificial bee colony (ABC), adapt inertia weight salp swarm algorithm (WSSA), salp swarm algorithm with grey wolf optimizer (SSA-GWO), SSA with PSO (SSA-PSO), enhanced GWO (EGWO) MPPT algorithms. The effectiveness and stability of the proposed control strategy are validated, especially tracking speed under PSCs. Simulation results show that the BFBIC topology with the proposed IGWO algorithm outperforms other algorithms on most cases, especially only takes the tracking time of 0.24s and reaches the efficiency of 98.54% under the most severe PSCs.
