The backstepping approach is adapted to the problem of globally uniformly asymptotically stabilizing nonlinear systems in feedback form with a delay arbitrarily large in the input. The strategy of design relies on the construction of a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional. Continuously differentiable control laws are constructed.
Mazenc et al. (2006) studied this question.
