In this paper, we consider nonlinear systems subject to unknown constant disturbance inputs. We wish to design state feedback and observer-based output feedback controllers which ensure that the system output asymptotically tracks a specified constant reference signal and all states are bounded. Our results establish design procedures of state feedback and observer-based PI controllers for a class of nonlinear systems with globally Lipschitz nonlinearities.
