The prediction of sensor data can help the exoskeleton control system to get the human motion intention and target position in advance, so as to reduce the human-machine interaction force. In this paper, an improved method for the prediction algorithm of exoskeleton sensor data is proposed. Through an algorithm simulation test and two-link simulation experiment, the algorithm improves the prediction accuracy by 14.23 ± 0.5%, and the sensor data is smooth. Input the predicted signal into the two-link model, and use the calculated torque method to verify the prediction accuracy data and smoothness. The simulation results showed that the algorithm can predict the joint angle of the human body and can be used for the follow-up control of the swinging legs of the exoskeleton.
