Various extensions and generalizations of Bernstein polynomials have been considered among others by Szasz [13], Meyer-Konig and Zeller [8], Cheney and Sharma [1], Jakimovski and Leviatan [4], Stancu [12], Pethe and Jain [11]. Bernstein polynomials are based on binomial and negative binomial distributions. Szasz and Mirakyan [9] have defined another operator with the help of the Poisson distribution. The operator has approximation properties similar to those of Bernstein operators. Meir and Sharma [7] and Jam and Pethe [3] deal with generalizations of Szasz-Mirakyan operator. As another generalization, we define in this paper a new operator with the help of a Poisson type distribution, consider its convergence properties and give its degree of approximation. The results for the Szasz-Mirakyan operator can easily be obtained from our operator as a particular case.
