The main challenge that we face when applying Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) to paralyzed lower limbs is to avoid hyperstimulation and to defer the muscular fatigue as much as possible. FES is used to excite paralyzed muscles that are under lesions and consequently no more controlled by paraplegic patients. We aimed in this study to compute the needed patterns stimulation necessary to perform a desired given motion of the knee joint. We coupled the exact Input Output Feedback Linearization with a Model predictive Controller (MPC). This latter enables us to incorporate explicitly constraints on inputs, outputs and system states. Internal dynamics stability was mathematically proved and MPC performances were compared to a classical pole placement controller in terms of robustness, stability and finite time convergence.
