Abstract: To improve the efficiency of the power generation，the scheme of the solar tracking system is designed by analyzing the technical characteristics of the GPS positioning system. The microcontroller is chosen as the core which has realized the initiative sun-tracking to improve the efficiency of the power generation. The solar elevation angle and azimuth are calculated by extracting the GPS real-time datas. The position of the solar panels can be obtained through the angle sensor. Finally, adjust the orientation of the panels by the driving stepping motor to track the sun.
