Online iLQR-MPC with Whole-Body Control for Robust Humanoid Locomotion
Online iLQR-MPC with Whole-Body Control for Robust Humanoid Locomotion
This research paper introduces an online iterative linear-quadratic-regulator model predictive control (iLQR-MPC) framework integrated with whole-body control to achieve robust humanoid locomotion.
The authors present a model-based control framework combining iterative linear-quadratic-regulator MPC with whole-body control for humanoid locomotion, demonstrating disturbance recovery in simulation and on the Unitree G1 platform under specified impulsive push conditions.

ving contact feasibility. The model-based formulation makes disturbance responses interpretable through explicit costs and constraints, and requires no platform-specific policy training. In MuJoCo simulations, the iLQR-MPC replans at 100 Hz (mean solve time 8.9 ms); the Unitree G1 sustains steady-state walking and recovers from impulsive 245 N forward and 175 N lateral pushes.

iterative linear-quadratic-regulator MPC (iLQR-MPC) then jointly optimizes contact forces and footstep locations in a single receding-horizon problem, without a separate step planner. Specifically, contact and motion constraints are incorporated into the backward pass through augmented-Lagrangian and relaxed-barrier penalties. A whole-body controller subsequently maps the plan to joint torques at 500 Hz while preser
