The problem of designing a feedback controller which results in a               system that asymptotically tracks the desired referece input is a               fundamental problem for control engineers.  Procedures for designing            tracking controllers are well established for linear systems with no y.         Recently, it has become recognized that control designs based on a              nominal system may not work well in practice since the system may               deviate from its nominal values.  This has led to interest in robust            controller design, i.e., the controller must be designed to achieve             desired performance when there are perturbations in the system.  This           research will develop techniques for designing controllers which                guarantee asymptotic tracking for all allowable variations in the               system parameters.  Such a controller is termed a robust tracking               controller.  The goal is to derive conditions which establish the               existence of a robust tracking controller and to determine constructive         methods for designing controllers with this robustness property.
