In this paper it is proposed a central pattern generator (CPG) based on workspace intentions, where the parameters of modulation have physical meaning and the walking can be adapted to overcome irregular terrains by changing few parameters. The walking features are independently modulated since there is no coupling relationship among WCPG parameters. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the WCPG performance for a simplified quadruped robot model in different terrains.
