Design of a Fuzzy Takagi-Sugeno Controller to Vary the Joint Knee Angle of Paraplegic Patients

  • Conference paper
Neural Information Processing (ICONIP 2006)

Abstract

The papers shows, through theoretical studies and simulations, that using the description of the plant by Takagi-Sugeno (T-S), it is possible to design a nonlinear controller to control the position of the leg of a paraplegic patient. The control system was designed to change the angle of the joint knee of 60°. This is the first study that describes the application of Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) models in this kind of problem.
