Abstract
Being a unique phenomenon in hybrid systems, mode switchis of fundamental importance in dynamic and control analysis. Inthis paper, we focus on global long-time switching and stabilityproperties of conewise linear systems (CLSs), which are a class oflinear hybrid systems subject to state-triggered switchingsrecently introduced for modeling piecewise linear systems. Byexploiting the conic subdivision structure, the “simple switchingbehavior” of the CLSs is proved. The infinite-time mode switchingbehavior of the CLSs is shown to be critically dependent on twoattracting cones associated with each mode; fundamental propertiesof such cones are investigated. Verifiable necessary andsufficient conditions are derived for the CLSs with infinite modeswitches. Switch-free CLSs are also characterized by exploringthe polyhedral structure and the global dynamical properties. Theequivalence of asymptotic and exponential stability of the CLSs isestablished via the uniform asymptotic stability of the CLSs thatin turn is proved by the continuous solution dependence on initialconditions. Finally, necessary and sufficient stability conditionsare obtained for switch-free CLSs.
