'''Feedback linearization''' is a common approach used in controlling [[nonlinear systems]]. The approach involves coming up with a transformation of the nonlinear system into an equivalent linear system through a change of variables and a suitable control input. Feedback linearization may be applied to nonlinear systems of the form
Line 9 ⟶ 11:
:<math>u = a(x) + b(x)v\,</math>
that renders a linear input&ndash;output map between the new input <math>v</math> and the output. An outer-loop control strategy for the resulting linear control system can then be applied.
