Abstract :
We propose a new set point tracking controller for plants subject to simultaneous input amplitude and rate constraints. Short settling times are achieved by allowing the controller to saturate. The tracking controller can be deduced from a controller stabilizing the origin with an associated domain of attraction. Additionally, no assumptions concerning the rate of the reference signal are necessary.
