Abstract :
This paper deals with the inherent robustness of simple controllers for a certain class of nonlinear systems. In particular, we show that the error in the trajectory of the closed-loop nonlinear system is bounded when a controller is designed for a simplified system, and a scalar gain in the control law is larger than a certain finite value.
