Abstract

In this paper the structural controllability of a class of a nonlinear system is investigated. The transfer function (matrix) of nonlinear systems is obtained by putting the nonlinear system model on non-commutative ring. Conditions of structural controllability of nonlinear systems are presented according to the criterion of linear systems structural controllability in frequency domain. An example is used to testify the presented conditions finally.
