  • Abstract
    We consider the problem of stabilizing the position and orientation of an underactuated hovercraft to the origin, when the hovercraft has only two independent controls. We propose a time-varying feedback control law. The control is based on pole placement techniques combined with backstepping techniques. The stability analysis involves a solution of the Lyapunov´s equation for linear systems.
