✦ Synopsis

In this paper, we will study the tracking control problem for nonlinear uncertain dynamical systems. Two generalized feedback control inputs have been proposed such that the feedback-controlled systems satisfy the complete tracking control property with exponential asymptotic stability and the trajectories of the systems are steered to the pre-specified observation map with an exponential convergence rate. Moreover, an estimate of the tracking time of the trajectories attaining the observation map has also been given. An example inspired from a guided missile problem illustrates the use of our main results.
