Abstract :
This paper provides a method for designing step-tracking controllers for systems with saturating actuators. This method, which is based on the recently developed theory of Quasilinear Control, involves converting the dynamic part of the step-tracking specifications into tracking specifications for random signals. The proposed method is illustrated by examples.
