AB  - To address voltage fluctuations caused by high-penetration wind power integration, this paper proposes a hybrid reactive power compensation strategy based on Sample Entropy-improved Symplectic Geometric Mode Decomposition (SE-improved SGMD) for smoothing wind power output. The innovation lies in enhancing SGMD by introducing SE to quantitatively evaluate the complexity of decomposed Symplectic Geometry Components (SGCs). This improvement enables adaptive reconstruction of high-, medium-, and low-frequency components from system unbalanced reactive power, effectively overcoming modal aliasing and subjective parameter dependency inherent in conventional methods like Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) and Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD). The reconstructed components are then precisely allocated as reference signals for the rotor-side converter (RSC) of doubly-fed wind turbines, STATCOM, and shunt capacitors according to their respective response characteristics. Furthermore, the required capacities of STATCOM and shunt capacitors are optimized based on the energy ratio of each frequency band and the predetermined reactive capacity of the wind turbine’s RSC. Simulation results under voltage disturbance and short-circuit fault scenarios demonstrate that the SE-improved SGMD strategy not only enhances voltage stability with reduced overshoot and faster recovery but also achieves intensive utilization of dynamic compensation resources (STATCOM), thereby significantly reducing the total cost of the reactive power compensation system needed to meet grid connection standards, confirming its effectiveness and economic superiority.
