Research of force amplification control strategy of lower extremity exoskeleton

Abstract

In order to gain a feasible control strategy that is appropriate for lower extremity exoskeleton, a man-machine force amplification control strategy was proposed, and the joint simulation by using Adams and Matlab/Simulink for the control strategy was carried out. It proves that the lower extremity exoskeleton with the man-machine force amplification control strategy can effectively help human body bearing heavy payload, and can reduce the energy consumption of human body in the process of walking.
