qa0 and qb0 are the stimulation intensity thresholds of one antagonistic muscle pair, Ka and Kb the identified steady state gains and qamax and qbmax the maximum comfortable stimulation intensities for the individual muscle pair and participant. In order to translate the given charge (µAs) to the applied current and pulse width, please refer to Eq. (3)
