Next: Differentially flat systems Up: 15.5 Steering Methods for Previous: 15.5.2.3 Chained-form systems
The steering methods presented so far are perhaps the most widely known; however, several other alternatives exist. Most of these follow in the spirit of the methods in Sections 15.5.1 and 15.5.2 by exploiting the properties of a specific class of systems. Some alternatives are briefly surveyed here. This is an active field of research; it is likely that new methods will be developed in the coming years.
