1. A control system for a movement reconstruction and/or restoration for a patient with a neurological disorder, comprising:
a CNS-Stimulation Module comprising an EES-Module configured to provide a CNS-Stimulation to a patient;
and/or a PNS-Stimulation Module comprising an FES-Module, configured to provide a PNS-Stimulation to the patient;
a controller configured to control one or more of the CNS-Stimulation Module and the PNS-Stimulation Module;
at least one sensor configured to measure at least one parameter indicative of the movement of at least one limb or part of a limb or the trunk or the head of the patient; and
a pre-warning module configured to provide a pre-warning signal indicative of providing an upcoming stimulation event, the pre-warning signal is configured to assist the patient to coordinate the patient's voluntary control of the movement and the upcoming stimulation event;
wherein the pre-warning signal acts in a sub-motor threshold region;
wherein the controller arranges and controls one or more of the CNS-Stimulation Module and the PNS-Stimulation Module using the at least one sensor to predict the intended movement of the patient.
