This paper addresses trajectory tracking control of port-controlled Hamiltonian systems via generalized canonical transformations and passivity based control. The main strategy adopted in this paper is to construct an error system, which describes the dynamics of the tracking error, by a passive port-controlled Hamiltonian system. After obtaining the error system, tracking control of the original system can be achieved by stabilizing the error system via passivity based approach. First, a

Then a concrete design procedure is derived for a class of electro-mechanical systems. Furthermore, the proposed method is applied to a magnetic levitation system and laboratory experiments demonstrate its effectiveness.
