Nonlinear state prediction is of crucial importance to design controllers for nonlinear processes with input time delay. In this paper, the extended nonlinear state predictor (ENSP) we proposed is first outlined, which is used to predict the future states of a class of nor linear processes with input time delay. A new concept of strong tracking predictor (STP) is then proposed, and an orthogonality principle is given as a criterion to design the STP. On the basis of the orthogonality principle, the ENSP is modified, which results in a STP. After the detailed STP algorithm is presented, we prove that the STP is locally asymptotically convergent for a class of nonlinear deterministic processes if some sufficient conditions are satisfied. In the presence of measurement noise, it is further proved that the proposed STP is exponentially bounded under certain conditions. Finally, computer simulations with a MIMO nonlinear model are presented, which illustrate that the proposed STP can predict accurately the future states of a class of nonlinear time delay processes no matter whether the states change suddenly or slowly, in addition, it has definite robustness against model/plant mismatches.
