Abstract
We consider a stabilization problem of a class of input-delayed nonlinear systems that have not only feedforward, but also some non-feedforward nonlinearity. While there are some existing results that deal with input-delayed non-feedforward nonlinear systems, they often assume a small input delay. It has been often the case that for a large input delay, the results are limited to only feedforward systems. In this letter, combined with the LMI approach in [3] and the reduction method in [5], we show that some feedforward and non-feedforward systems with a large delay in the input can be stabilized via the proposed controller.
