This NASA article discusses the main options of removing mars "dust" from the solar cells. Dust removal methods can be categorized briefly into four categories:
Natural - using Mars winds to clean cells
Mechanical - mechanical wiping of cells
Electromechanical - using ultrasound to break dust adhesion
Electrostatic - charging the cells to attract particles of opposite or neutral charge
