Abstract :
The high performance bounded (HPB) control methodology is based upon the idea of using progressively higher gains as the system approaches equilibrium to avoid actuator saturation and to improve performance. In this paper three new theoretical results are presented. The first provides a formal stability proof for the HPB control scheme. The second provides a method for dealing with asymmetric position constraints. The third allows for the incorporation of actuator rate constraints into the HPB methodology
