With the rapid development of powered transtibial prostheses, the control of motorized actuators is a research hotspot. This study designs a double-loop impedance controller to improve the performance of the traditional controller. Including time-varying parameters, the designed controller is implemented on a novel elastic actuator. Under different loads of users' weights, simulation tests are conducted in a working condition of walking, and the results show that the designed control system has outstanding performances in the control of an entire gait cycle. The error between output and reference of ankle joint position during walking is less than 0.013rad in each sample time. A position disturbance test demonstrates that the control also has a high tolerance of any position disturbance at the ankle joint. The double-loop impedance controller can replace traditional finite-state impedance control in the field of the powered transtibial prosthesis and has the potential to be applied in other relative fields. © 2022 Institute of Physics Publishing.
