Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of robot control, in particular to a robust control method and a robust control device for an under-actuated single-leg supporting hydraulic assistance exoskeleton.

The wearable lower limb assistance exoskeleton robot is an intelligent man-machine integrated device for simulating the lower limb structure of a human body, enhancing the walking durability, walking speed, loading capacity and other physical abilities of a wearer, and has important roles in rescue and relief work, building operation, improvement of individual combat capacity and other aspects. The combination of exoskeleton and person can adapt to unstructured environment, has excellent flexibility, and can complete complex work, which is incomparable with other complete mechanical equipment. The hydraulic driver has high power-weight ratio and can output enough force, so that the hydraulic driver is very suitable for a system with compact structure and heavy load, such as a lower limb assistance exoskeleton.
The total drive lower extremity exoskeleton system has the problems of overlarge dead weight and overlarge energy consumption due to the fact that the total drive lower extremity exoskeleton system comprises a plurality of drivers, and the load bearing capacity of the system and the cruising capacity of the portable energy supply system can be limited. In order to further reduce the weight and energy consumption of the assisting exoskeleton robot and enhance the flexibility of human body movement, the underdriven lower limb assisting exoskeleton robot is gradually proposed.
However, the reduction of the number of drivers and the inherent strong coupling high-order nonlinearity of the system and the modeling uncertainty all bring great difficulty to the design of an under-actuated lower limb hydraulic assistance exoskeleton robust control (ARC) algorithm. Specifically, first, the lack of control input to the fully-driven exoskeleton results in a control method for the fully-driven exoskeleton that cannot be directly used in the fully-driven exoskeleton system, as compared to the fully-driven exoskeleton. Secondly, the under-actuated lower limb hydraulic exoskeleton system has strong coupling high-order nonlinearity and various model uncertainties, so that the requirement on the robust performance of a control algorithm is high. The existing under-driven lower limb hydraulic exoskeleton control method is poor in man-machine interaction force control accuracy and weak in system robustness.
