This study presents a solution for reducing the frequency oscillations in multi-area interconnected power system by means of using an VSC-HVDC interconnection transmission line. The upcoming power-electronics based HVDC transmission system offers new features that can be advantageous for improving the frequency control and thus for enhancing the stability in transmission networks. This paper is structured in two main parts; the first one is be devoted to introduce the basic elements of HVDC links and the second part will be focused on the effects of the HVDC links in the frequency control of interconnected power systems. In order to show the positive effects of HVDC links under random load disturbance, a model with parallel AC-DC interconnected power system, including a new power modulation controller of bi-directional VSC-HVDC link, is proposed and simulated. Comparisons between HVAC and HVDC transmissions are presented and its performance is evaluated using Matlab/Simulink.
