One of the classical problems of nonlinear systems and control theory is feedback linearization. Its obvious motivation is that one can utilize linear control theory if the nonlinear system at hand is linearizable by feedback. This problem is well-understood for the smooth nonlinear systems. in the present paper, we investigate feedback linearizability of a class of piecewise linear, and hence nonsmooth, systems.
