Method of extended input/output linearization for the time-varying nonlinear system

Abstract

In this thesis, the method of input-output linearization for the time-varying nonlinear system is discussed. To this end, the proposed linearization technique of existing research has been extended to nonlinear systems. The suggested technique for an extended input-output linearization method is conversed to time-invariant linear system and formulated as time-varying nonlinear system by having multiple integrators. This suggested method presented the necessary and sufficient condition and proved through examples. © 2014 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
