Abstract
In this paper we are dealing with a class of summation integral operators on unbounded interval generated by a sequence \((L_{n})_{n\geq1}\) of linear and positive operators. We study the degree of approximation in terms of the moduli of smoothness of first and second order. Also we present the relationship between the local smoothness of functions and the local approximation. By using probabilistic methods, new features of \(L_{n}f\) are pointed out such as the approximation property at discontinuity points and the monotonicity property under some additional assumptions of the function \(f\) . Also the rate of convergence of these operators for functions of bounded variation is given.
