Abstract: The impact of subsynchronous oscillation (SSO) on grid security is becoming increasingly prominent with the rapid development of a large new energy base. However, the SSO modes and characteristics in complex power systems where series-complementary AC systems, DC systems, wind farms, and thermal power plants co-exist simultaneously are still not well understood, and relevant research has yet to be conducted. To address these issues, this study aims to investigate the SSO oscillation modes and the participation of specific influencing factors using eigenvalue and participation factor analysis. Additionally, the influence of system operation mode and control parameters on the SSO characteristics is studied through eigenvalue analysis. The findings of this study suggest that multiple oscillation sources and the co-existence of various oscillation patterns in hybrid AC–DC transmission systems cause SSO problems. The SSOs arise due to inappropriate system operation or parameter selection. As the series compensation increases, the system tends to become unstable. The system stability improves when the wind power output increases or the thermal power output decreases while keeping the output power of other sources constant. On the other hand, the system stability decreases as the DC transmission power gradually decreases. In terms of the control parameters, a higher value of the inner-loop proportionality coefficient of the converter current on the rotor side of the wind turbine results in a more unstable system. However, the rotor-side converter outer loop parameters and the stator-side control loop PI parameters have a negligible effect on the oscillation frequency and damping of the system. Matlab time domain simulations are conducted to verify the accuracy of the theoretical analysis.
