Abstract

CPV went off the market mainly due to problems of trackers. We are trying to solve the tracking issue. Step 1. Control of the mating module by imperfection of tackers: We have developed a Monte Carlo model of the behavior of CPV module and system with assemble errors. Step 2. Advanced CPV module for rough tracking: We have succeeded in demonstrating 100 x and 28.5% CPV module tracking every 30 minutes. Step 3. No tracking: We have developed a modern design method that enables ultra-wide acceptance by advanced asymmetrical optics.
