General ZMP Preview Control for Bipedal Walking

An online pattern generator for bipedal walking control is designed based on the notion of ZMP preview control using the full dynamics model. The method is called the general ZMP preview control. Conventional implementation by Kajita is based on an approximated table-cart model, which neglects the actual system dynamics. This leads to erroneous ZMP tracking for real robots, even if the system tracks the generated COM pattern exactly. Numerical simulations are provided to show the advantage and character of the method
