On the (h0,h)-stabilization of switched nonlinear systems via state-dependent switching rule

摘要

This paper considers switching stabilization of some general nonlinear systems. Assuming certain properties of a convex linear combination of the nonlinear vector fields, two ways of generating stabilizing switching signals are proposed, i.e., the minimal rule and the generalized rule, both based on a partition of the time-state space. The main theorems show that the resulting switched system is globally uniformly asymptotically stable and globally uniformly exponentially stable, respectively. It is shown that the stabilizing switching signals do not exhibit chattering, i.e., two consecutive switching times are separated by a positive amount of time. In addition, under the generalized rule, the switching signal does not exhibit Zeno behavior (accumulation of switching times in a finite time). Stability analysis is performed in terms of two measures so that the results can unify many different stability criteria, such as Lyapunov stability, partial stability, orbital stability, and stability of an invariant set. Applications of the main results are shown by several examples, and numerical simulations are performed to both illustrate and verify the stability analysis.
