  • Abstract
    We study an important class of feedback controllers that arise in curve tracking problems for robotics. Previous experimental results suggested the robust performance of the control laws under perturbations. Here we use input-to-state stability to prove predictable tolerance and safety bounds that ensure robust performance under perturbations and time delays. Our proofs are based on an invariant polygon argument and a new strict Lyapunov function design.
