A performance function characterizing the convergence rate, maximum overshoot and steady-state error is used for the output error transformation, such that stabilizing the transformed system is sufficient to achieve the tracking control of the original system with a priori prescribed performance. The main objective of this comment is to point out a mistake occurred through the paper, resulted in the ineffectiveness of the proposed controller %K Adaptive sliding mode control %K prescribed performance control %K angular velocity %K MEMS %K gyroscope %U https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0142331218773552
