Valve-controlled asymmetric cylinder is widely used in servo loading system. As a kind of typical electro-hydraulic servo system (EHSS), it inherently has the characteristics such as high order nonlinear, strong coupling, and uncertain, therefore, conventional control strategy is difficult to satisfy the requirements of high-performance control. In this paper, a novel linear active disturbance rejection control (LADRC) method was proposed, in which the internal and external disturbances were actively estimated by the third-order linear extended state observer (LESO) in real-time, and rejected by the control law of proportional integral control (PID) with acceleration feed-forward. The stability of the proposed method was proved, and the influence rules of the LADRC parameters on the control performance were revealed by simulation. Finally, comparative experiments between LADRC and PID control were carried out, results showed that the disturbances can be effectively compensated and the control goals can be successfully achieved with the proposed method.
