The implemented methodology requires the measured full I–V characteristics of the PV panel as an input. The I–V curve of any PV solar panel is normally easy to be measured for a given environmental condition. The data should cover the whole range of the PV panel normal operation, between the short and open circuit conditions.
The second sample is a commercial polycrystalline PV module (SPS 10 W 12 V) that includes 36 cells in series. The third sample is an amorphous module with 68 cells connected in series (WSK0045). The used measurement systems record the I–V curves with roughly 50 data points ( V, I) between the short and open circuit points.
The ideality factor comes from the differential of a signal so it is very prone to noise. Noise problems are particularly problematical in Suns-Voc measurements. To reduces noise the slope is usually taken as a fit over several points. The effects of temperature are a problem particularly if the temperature change during the measurement.
In real cells the ideality factor depends on the voltage across the cell. The ideality factor can either be plotted as a function of voltage or it can be given as a single value. Since the ideality factor varies with voltage, if given as a single value the voltage range also needs to be given.
Three different PV samples have been used for validating the proposed model. The first sample is a crystalline silicon cell manufactured especially for research purposes ( Plesz, 2015 ). The second sample is a commercial polycrystalline PV module (SPS 10 W 12 V) that includes 36 cells in series.
Third, modelling a PV module assumes that all cells are identical, whereas practically, not all cells have the same characteristics because of technology processes or as a result of partial environmental effects which could be different among cells in the module.

IV Curve
The IV curve of a solar cell is the superposition of the IV curve of the solar cell diode in the dark with the light-generated current.1 The light has the effect of shifting the IV curve down into the fourth quadrant where power can be extracted from the diode. Illuminating a cell adds to the normal "dark" currents in the diode so that the diode law becomes:
