In this paper, a new control coordination strategy is proposed to address multiple stability problems that may arise in HVAC/HVDC power systems. The stability issues studied in this paper include small-signal, rotor angle, frequency, and DC voltage. A benchmark composed of two 2-area AC systems inspired by Kundur system connected through a Modular Multilevel Converter-based (MMC) multi-terminal DC (MTDC) system is proposed to study multiple stability issues. To enhance the global security of the considered benchmark power system, supplementary power converter controllers are designed and implemented as ancillary HVDC services. The combination of these services may not always result in satisfactory dynamic performance due to system constraints and control interactions. Therefore, a coordinated strategy is proposed and evaluated through a comparative study. The advantages of this method are mainly: 1) AC & DC stability phenomena – usually studied separately – are considered and enhanced in a global approach, simultaneously, and 2) the coordination strategy guarantees minimal control interactions during operation without the need of modifying the tuning of the controller parameters.
