Disturbance Observer Based Frequency & Voltage Regulation for RES Integrated Uncertain Power Systems

Abstract: This paper proposes a disturbance-observer-based control (DOBC) scheme for frequency and voltage regulation for a renewable energy sources (RES) integrated power systems. The proposed approach acts a feed-forward control which improves the dynamic performance of the conventional proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller. Robustness of the proposed control scheme has been validated through simulations under worst-case and stochastic uncertainties to mitigate real-time variability in RES output and load. The performance of the proposed control technique is compared to well established technique in presence of communication delay and white noise.
