Finite-Time Stability and Stabilization of Fractional Order Positive Switched Systems

This paper is concerned with finite-time stability analysis and control synthesis of fractional order positive switched systems. By using the linear copositive Lyapunov function integrated with average dwell time switching technique, the finite-time stability of fractional order positive switched systems is first addressed. Then, the finite-time boundedness of fractional order positive switched systems with exogenous input is discussed. Finally, the stabilization of the considered systems is proposed, where a control strategy based on linear programming is designed. Several implemental algorithms are provided to reduce the conservativeness of results. Two numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the findings of theory.
