Abstract

This paper considers the problem of stabilizing single-input affine switched nonlinear systems. The main idea is to transform a switched nonlinear system to an equivalent controllable switched linear system. First, we define the notion of modal state feedback linearization. Then, we develop a set of conditions for modal state feedback linearizability of a certain class of second order switched nonlinear systems. Considering two special structures, easily verifiable conditions are proposed for the existence of suitable state transformations for modal feedback linearization. The results are constructive. Finally, the method is illustrated with two examples, including a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed approach.
