  abstract={Minimization of the total transmission loss of an interconnected AC-DC grid plays an important role for the economic operation of the AC-DC grid. Different from the conventional AC grid where the transmission loss is usually minimized by reactive power regulation, the transmission loss of a meshed AC-DC grid can be optimized by adjusting the active power exchange between the AC and DC grids. Additionally, smaller DC voltage deviation after grid disturbances is very desirable since it can bring less impact to the operations of AC-DC grid. This paper firstly presents two improved sequential power flow algorithms for modular multilevel converters (MMCs) based AC-DC grid under DC power-voltage droop control. An optimization algorithm is then proposed to minimize the total loss of the AC-DC grid and the overall DC voltage deviation after the change of operating conditions. Adaptive droop control is used in the proposed optimization algorithm in which the power references are control variables solved from the optimal AC-DC power flow. The proposed algorithm is verified in an AC-DC grid consisting of a six-terminal DC grid connected to the IEEE 39-bus AC grid and a classical five-terminal AC-MTDC system.},
