This paper discusses modeling and nonlinear control of a joint antagonistically actuated by two pneumatic, artificial muscles. A single model of the whole system is obtained by a combined physical and phenomenological modeling approach. The combined model for the joint, the muscles and the proportional valves results in a nonlinear, affine-in-control system description. The model is used to derive control laws for an input/output linearization approach to linearize the plant. Modeling and parametrization errors are covered via an outer control loop consisting of a state-feedback which is extended by an additional feedback of error integral. Extensive experimental results show the quality of the model and the performance of the respective control laws.
