On dynamic feedback linearization of four-dimensional affine control systems with two inputs

Abstract

This paper considers control affine systems in ℝ4 with two inputs, and gives necessary and sufficient conditions for dynamic feedback linearization of these systems with the restriction that the “linearizing outputs” must be some functions of the original state and inputs only. This also gives conditions for non-affine systems in ℝ3. © 1997 Société de Mathématiques Appliquées et Industrielles.
