Abstract
Approximate input-output linearization of nonlinear systems which fail to have a well defined relative degree is studied. For such systems, a method for constructing approximate systems that are input-output linearizable is provided. The analysis presented is motivated through its application to a common undergraduate control laboratory experiment-the ball and beam-where it is shown to be more effective for trajectory tracking than the standard Jacobian linearization
