  • Abstract
    We discuss classes of nonlinear systems with drift that can be reduced to the cascade of a linear system and a drift-free nonholonomic system. Building on previous work with amplitude-modulated sinusoids for trajectory tracking in drift-free systems, we present algorithms for configuration trajectory tracking in these dynamic settings. Results are demonstrated in simulation for representative examples
