In this paper, a general class of finite preview linear tracking control systems for plants with closed right half complex plane (RHP) zeros is considered. A tracking sensitivity function with important implications for the fidelity of reference tracking is defined. This tracking sensitivity function exhibits different tradeoffs from the standard unity feedback configuration of a feedback loop. The authors then review, for the ideal linear case, how preview control can be used to generate perfect asymptotic tracking performance, including plants with an unstable inverse. This result is examined from the perspective of time domain integrals, and their interpretation in terms of open RHP zeros, settling time and undershoot tradeoffs. It turns out that preview control does indeed permit a small amount of initial undershoot, at a time well ahead of a step reference change occurring, whilst still permitting a short settling time. This situation does give some different tracking performance tradeoffs to the unity feedback case, save that nonminimum phase plant zeros impose design limitations in essentially the same manner as in the unity feedback case. For the case where only a finite preview of the reference trajectory is available, additional frequency domain interpretations can be made. Interpolation conditions and a resultant Poisson frequency domain integral are examined. Following this, the same interpolation conditions are used to examine results on the achievable \(\mathcal H_\infty\) performance for a finite preview control scheme. These results extend the work of U.~Shaked and C.~E.~de Souza and others on \(\mathcal H_\infty\) tracking to the preview case.
