A Note on Input-to-State Stability with Input Derivatives

Abstract A new notion of input-to-state stability involving L ∞ norms of input derivatives up to a finite order k is introduced and characterized. We show by examples that this notion of stability is indeed weaker than the usual ISS. Applications to the study of global asymptotic stability of cascaded nonlinear systems are discussed.
