This article proposes a time efficient set-point tracking controller. The proposed controller synthesizes smooth control input within the input saturation limits of a class of second order nonlinear continuous time plants. The Lyapunov function based analysis assures the global asymptotic stability of the closedloop and the convergence of the set-point tracking error to zero. The computer simulation and laboratory scale experimental results are included in the paper to verify the theoretical findings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
