Stability analysis of switched nonlinear systems with an improved mode-dependent average dwell time method

摘要

This paper investigates the stability for a class of switched nonlinear systems. Firstly, an improved average dwell time (ADT) method is introduced, based on which an improved mode-dependent dwell time (MDDT) method is established. Then, several new results to the stability analysis are obtained. In comparison with the existing results, the obtained results have some advantages over those obtained by others. Finally, an illustrative example with numerical simulation is studied to show the correctness and validity of our results.
