Abstract-A constructive method is presented to design control lers that force the output of nonlinear systems in a strict feedback form to tra ck a bounded and sufficient smooth reference trajectory asymptotically. Under suitable condition with the initial output tracking error, the proposed controll ers guarantee the output tracking error within a symmetric or an asymmetric pre -specified limit range, and boundedness of all signals of the closed loop syste m. A transformation is introduced to take care of the output tracking error cons traint. Smooth and/or p-times differentiable step functions are proposed an d incorporated in the output tracking error transformation to overcome difficult ies due to the asymmetric limit range on the output tracking error. As a result, there are no switchings in the proposed controllers despite of the asymmetric l imit range.
