Introduction
We use artificial intelligence
neural network (ANN) to
solve the dust problem on the
solar cell surface by
depending on the factors that
reduce the performance of
the solar cell .

The main problem to reduce the performance of the solar cell is dust

Artificial Intelligence System to Predict Dust on Solar Cell surface
Result and testing
14
We apply on (Arduino, raspberry pi, Matlab) the results of the test lead to
the error rate (0.25) the below chart shows that
MATLAB simulation
System advantage
Water: The system uses 75% less water than manual-cleaning methods.
Automatically management: This system can be used in any place (forestry,
desert, mountains, hills snow area)
Less energy: Due to less times of cleaning.
smart and autonomous: Sensors help in receiving the data that are related to
weather, then start the cleaning process keeping in mind the weather
condition
Remote management: the cleaner’s system help monitoring and manage the
cleaning of solar panels from any place.

Conclusion
we find If solar cells
are not cleaned for a
month, solar cells
performance will be
reduced to 50%
which means we
must clean the
surface of the solar
cell always.
