Question: As shown below, a PV module operating under STC is connected to a load ( load resistance R = 2 0 ) via an MPPT

As shown below, a PV module operating under STC is connected to a load (load resistance R=20) via an MPPT based on a boost DC/DC converter. The module specifications are as shown in the exam cover page. The boost converter operates from an initial duty cycle of 10% and an iteration step of 6%.
Determine (1) the number of steps required to reach MPP using the hill climbing algorithm and (2) the final duty cycle error in %.
Hint: for a boost converter, Ra=R(1-D)2
