Modified Adaptive Control of an Actuated Ankle Foot Orthosis to assist Paretic Patients

In this paper, a model reference adaptive control with saturated proportional derivative (PD) action for an active ankle foot orthosis (AAFO) to assist the gait of paretic patients, is studied. Unlike most classical model-based controllers, the proposed controller does not require any prior estimati…
