Improvements of a Numerical Methodology for Computing Near-Field Parasitic Electromagnetic Emissions of Solar Panels

Improvements of a methodology [1] able to compute the parasitic electromagnetic emissions of a solar panel are presented in this paper in order to handle real solar panels. Thus, the method is able to take into account solar panels with triple-junction solar cells, series or shunt power regulation system, and honeycomb composite panels. This numerical method is validated experimentally by comparing the near magnetic field emitted by a real solar panel and calculated by the method.
