Abstract

This brief addresses the stability problem of discrete-time switched positive systems. The main contribution lies in two aspects. First, a novel method [the switched linear copositive Lyapunov function (SLCLF)] is proposed to reduce the conservatism of the stability criterion obtained by means of the common linear copositive Lyapunov function. Second, some necessary and sufficient conditions are established for the existence of the switched linear copositive Lyapunov function, assuming that a switched linear positive system is given. A numerical example shows the advantage of the obtained results.
