This paper combines the constrained model predictive control with the feedback linearization to solve a nonlinear system control problem with input constraints. The combined approach consists of two steps: Firstly, the nonlinear model is linearized by the feedback linearization. Secondly, based on the linearized model, the constrained model predictive controller is designed taking input constraints into consideration. The proposed controller is applied to two link robot system, and tracking performances of the controller are investigated via some simulations, where the comparisons are done for the cases of unconstrained, constrained input in feedback linearization.

In this paper, a novel feedback linearization is proposed for discrete-time nonlinear systems described by discrete-time T-S fuzzy models. The local linear models of a T-S fuzzy model are transformed to a controllable canonical form respectively, and their T-S fuzzy combination results in a feedback linearizable Tagaki-Sugeno fuzzy model. Based on this model, a nonlinear state feedback linearizing input is determined. Nonlinear state transformation is inferred from the linear state transformations for the controllable canonical forms. The proposed method of this paper is more intuitive and easier to understand mathematically compared to the well-known feedback linearization technique which requires a profound mathematical background. The feedback linearizable condition of this paper is also weakened compared to the conventional feedback linearization. This means that larger class of nonlinear systems is linearizable compared to the case of classical linearization.

We propose a disturbance observer(DOB) based feedback linearization control to improve position tracking performance in the presence of disturbance. The proposed method consists of a disturbance observer and a feedback linearization controller. The disturbance observer is designed to estimate the load force disturbance in electro-hydraulic systems. An auxiliary state variable is proposed in order to avoid amplification of the measurement noises in the disturbance observer. Using the estimated disturbance enables the Electro-hydraulic servo systems(EHS) dynamics to be changed into feedback linearization from. In order to compensate for the disturbance and to track the desired position, the feedback linearization based controller is proposed. The proposed method has a simple structure which can easily be implemented in practice. As a result, the proposed method improves the position tracking performance in the presence of disturbance. Its performance is validated via simulations.

Hydraulic systems have severe nonlinearity inherently compared to other systems like electric control systems. Hence, precise modeling and analysis of the hydraulic control systems are not easy. In this study, the control performance of a hydraulic control system with a feedback linearization compensator and a disturbance observer was analyzed through experiments and numerical simulations. This study mainly focuses on the quantitative investigation of sensitivity on system uncertainties in the hydraulic control system. First, the sensitivity on the system uncertainty of the hydraulic control system with a Feedback Linearization - State Feedback Controller (FL-SFC) was quantitatively analyzed. In addition, the efficacy of a disturbance observer coupled with the FL-SFC for the hydraulic control system was verified in terms of overcoming the control performances deterioration owing to system uncertainty.

A robust controller is designed based on feedback linearization and sliding mode control to damp sub-synchronous control interaction (SSCI) in doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) wind power plants (WPPs) interfaced with the grid. A feedback-linearized sliding mode controller (FLSMC) is developed for the rotor-side converter (RSC) through feedback linearization, design of the sliding mode controller, and parameter tuning with the use of particle swarm optimization. A series-compensated 100-MW DFIG WPP is adopted in simulation to evaluate the effectiveness of the designed FLSMC at different compensation degrees and wind speeds. The performance of the designed controller in damping SSCI is compared with proportional-integral controller and conventional sub-synchronous resonance damping controller. Besides the better damping capability, the proposed FLSMC enhances robustness of the system under parameter variations.

In this paper, a 800 MHz 1 W cartesian feedback linearized power amplifier is designed and fabricated for TETRA handset application. For amplification of TETRA signal with 200 kHz narrow bandwidth, amplifier linearization performance of more than 30 dBc is improved through the cartesian feedback linearizer at the offset Sequency of ${\pm}25$ kHz. It is clear that the linearization performance is affected by imbalance of gain and phase between I/Q signals and also DC offset. The linearization performance can be maximized by the compensation of those influences. Cartesian feedback is suitable for a liearization technique of narrow band signal with QAM and another modulation signals, as well.

This paper proposes a feedback-linearization-based control algorithm for multirotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The feedback linearization scheme is highly efficient for considering nonlinearity between the rotational and translational motion of multirotor UAVs. We also propose a dynamic equation that reflects the aerodynamic effects of the vehicles; the equation's parameters can be determined through curve fitting using actual flight data. We derive the feedback linearization controller from the proposed dynamic equation, and propose a Luenberger observer to attenuate measurement noises. The proposed algorithm is implemented using our in-house flight control computer, and we describe its implementation in detail. To investigate the performance of the proposed algorithm, we carry out two flight scenarios: the first scenario, an autonomous landing on a moving platform, is a test of maneuverability; the second, picking up and replacing an object, test the algorithm's accuracy. In these scenarios, the proposed algorithm precisely controls multirotor UAVs, and we confirm that it can be successfully applied to real flight environments.

A method for obtaining optimal orbital maneuvers of a space vehicle has been developed by combining feedback linearization method with the elegance of the Lambert's theorem. To obtain solutions to nonlinear orbital maneuver problems. The full nonlinear equations of motion for space vehicle in polar coordinate system are transformed exactly into a controllable linear set in Brunovsky canonical form by using feedback linearization by choosing position vector as fully observable output vector. These equations are used to pose a linear optimal tracking problem with a solutions to Lambert's problem and a linear analytical solution of continuous low thrust problem as reference trajectories.

As in most industrial processes, the dynamic characteristics of an electric power system are subject to changes. Amongst those effects which cause the system to be uncertain, faults on transmission lines are considered. For the stabilization of the power system, we present an indirect adaptive control method, which is capable of tracking a sudden change in the effective reactance of a transmission line. As the plant dynamics are nonlinear, an input-output feedback linearization method is combined with an identification algorithm which estimates the effect of a fault.
