Abstract
This article considers the stabilization issue of switched discrete-time positive systems (SDPSs) with delay by using asynchronous control. Combining transition probability (TP) with mode-dependent average dwell time (MDADT), called TP-based MDADT switching, the SDPSs are more practical than classical models with average dwell-time (ADT) switching. With the aid of a co-positive Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional (CLKF), sufficient conditions ensuring the exponential stability almost surely (ES a.s.) of the SDPSs without control is studied, where the mode is not necessary to be stable. After that, a mode-dependent controller with switching delay is designed to stabilize the SDPSs in the case that there are unstable subsystems. An algorithm is provided to design the control gains. It is discovered that the mode in the closed-loop SDPSs is not required to be stable on synchronous and asynchronous switching intervals. Numerical simulations verify the merits of the new results.
