ABSTRACT
Charging system plays important role in solar storage system in order to get
maximum efficiency in extracting energy from the solar radiation. Microcontroller is
used to maintain certain condition of power production which is to maximize power
production from the solar panel as well as to convert low voltage to higher on cloudy
condition, otherwise to maintain high voltage of solar panel into suitable voltage.
Atmega 32 based fuzzy technique has been designed and experimentally carried out
to increase charging efficiency of solar panel system in this study. Fuzzy technique
enables to read multiple signals and further producing single output. Three scenarios
of charging based fuzzy have been performed experimentally to get the best
performance from some possibly scenarios. They were linear with temperature
compensation and 2-step with and without temperature compensation. Scenario of
charging without fuzzy also carried out to get comparison with charging based on
fuzzy. The results were battery temperature, voltage battery, voltage charging, current
and time of charging. Further charging efficiency was calculated to know the
charging performance beyond all scenarios. Charging based fuzzy of linear with
temperature compensation recorded the lowest temperature rise of the battery which
was only 30.4 C. Charging efficiency based fuzzy attained up to 98.08% for the linear
with temperature compensation scenario whereas efficiency of charging without
fuzzy attained 86.54%. Linear with temperature compensation scenario was
concluded as the best charging design based fuzzy on this study. It proved to be able
to control battery temperature and attained high charging efficiency. It was able to
keep battery lifecycle by protecting battery from overcharging and high temperature
rising.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
This thesis would not have been possible without the support and success of
Allah. Thanks and praise be to Allah. I would like to give special thanks to who has
always looked out for my future, for being someone who I am now and the person
who has always been behind all my success, thank you my father. I would like to
thank my mother for her moral support and undying love because without her, I do not
think I would have been able to accomplish anything.
My deepest gratitude and sincere thanks goes to my supervisors, Prof.
Muhammad Nizam, ST., MT., Ph.D and Dr. Miftahul Anwar, S.Si, M.Eng., for
guidance, encouragement and invaluable advice he has provided throughout my time
as her student. I have been extremely lucky to have a supervisor who cared so much
about my work, and who responded to my questions and queries so promptly. Her help
and caring ways gave me strength to carry on when times looked bleak. I would also
like to thank all the members of staff at UNS who taught me, helped me and advised
me. Their earlier teachings will always remain in my mind.
I would never forget all the chats and beautiful moments with some of my
friends and my classmate. They were fundamental in supporting me during these
stressful and difficult moments. I am very grateful to all people I have met along the
way and contributed to the development of my research. Thank to Solo people who
have not let me feel alienated in this city.
Thanks again to everyone who made this thesis and me possible.
