Position control accuracy of hydraulic interconnected suspension (HIS) for agricultural vehicle is unsatisfied under load impact conditions. In order to address this problem, advanced control methods were studied in this paper. The technical scheme of HIS was developed firstly. The transfer function from proportional valve spool displacement to hydraulic cylinder piston displacement was derived and then the parameters of the transfer function were also identified. The PID, sliding mode control (SMC) and fuzzy adaptive PID (FAPID) control algorithms were designed. The co-simulation of AMESim and SIMULINK was adopted to compare and analyze the control characteristics of the three algorithms. An experimental platform was also built to verify the improvement effect. The research conclusions show that when the HIS operates under load impact condition, for FAPID algorithm, the rise time is reduced by 0.27s, the maximum overshoot is reduced by 9.83mm, and the absolute value of average error is decreased by 62.62% compared with PID control algorithm. The response speed of SMC is the fastest, but there is a large chattering in the steady-state displacement. The designed FAPID control algorithm balances the advantages of fast response, high control precision and good stability, and the control performance is better than that of SMC and PID control algorithms. The research methods in this paper can provide reference value for position control accuracy improvement of hydraulic suspension.
