Performance estimation of the lower limb exoskeleton for plantarflexion using surface electromyography (sEMG) signals

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2017
In this paper, we evaluate the performance of the rigid and soft exoskeleton by measuring electromyography (sEMG) signal of human lower limb muscles. sEMG represents the degree of muscle activation and the higher sEMG level can be measured if the greater
