  We consider the problem of designing a state feedback control law to achieve
nonovershooting tracking for feedback linearisable multiple-input
multiple-output nonlinear systems. The reference signal is assumed to be
obtained from a linear exosystem. The design method adopts known methods for
the nonovershooting tracking of linear systems and extends them to the output
regulation of feedback linearisable nonlinear systems. The method accommodates
arbitrary initial conditions and offers design choice of the tracking
convergence speed.
