摘要:
A solar-based power generation system may include an array of components responsive to solar radiance. The components may be disposed over respective locations on a field. The system may further include a plurality of optical fibers having respective first ends coupled to the array of components and arranged to receive solar radiance. The plurality of optical fibers may have respective second ends arranged to output respective optical signals indicative of respective levels of solar radiance over the respective locations of the field. Opto-electrical circuitry may be coupled to receive the respective optical signals from the plurality of optical fibers and generate a respective signal indicative of a shadow condition present over at least one or more of the respective locations of the field.
摘要:
A solar tile system is disclosed. The solar tile system includes a fluorescence collector having multiple edges and configured to receive light through a face and configured to direct light towards the edges by total internal reflectance. The system also includes a photovoltaic cell coupled to at least one of the edges and configured to receive the light and convert the light to electrical power. The system further includes an optically matched interface layer disposed between the fluorescence collector and the photovoltaic cell at the at least one edge.
