Enhancing Frequency Control Through Rate of Change of Voltage Feedback

This letter proposes a simple and inexpensive technique to improve the frequency control of distributed energy resources. The proposed control consists in modifying the conventional estimated bus frequency signal with an additional feedback signal that utilizes the rate of change of the voltage magnitude measured at the same bus. The case study showcases the benefits of the proposed control and compares its performance with standard frequency control schemes through time-domain simulations.
