Abstract
An advantage of the feedback linearization technique is to make linear control theories can be used for nonlinear system. This advantage disappear when the sliding mode control (SMC) is used with the feedback linearization for uncertain nonlinear systems because the SMC can not be combined with a linear controller. In this paper, by defining a novel sliding surface, it is made possible that the feedback linearization technique, a linear controller and the SMC are used together for uncertain nonlinear system and the feedback linearization technique can have robustness without losing its advantage.
