摘要：Differential inequalities generated in an extended Lyapunov framework are employed in the stability and instability analyses of a class of switched continuous-time second-and higher order linear systems with an arbitrary number of switching matrices.The exponential stability and instability(ESI)conditions so obtained involve the supremum and infimum of ratios of certain quadratic forms of the matrices,leading to global time-averages of their activity intervals.Further,motivated by linear switching system examples of(ⅰ)instability with stable matrices and(ⅱ)stability with unstable matrices(found in the literature primarily for second-order systems),the proposed framework is generalized to establish ESI conditions that include both the activity intervals of the matrices and their switching rates,the latter being governed by a certain logarithmic measure of the normalized magnitudes of discontinuities caused by switching.In effect,(the new,globally averaged)dwell-time is flexibly traded,apparently for the first time,but under specific conditions(related,in part,to the eigenvalues of the matrices),for switching discontinuity-based conditions.Two further novel aspects of the proposed approach are:(ⅰ)For second-order matrices,switching lines in phase space can be chosen for periodic switching to stabilize or destabilize the system,and even generate oscillations,depending on the eigenvalues of the system matrices.But for third-(and higher)order matrices,such an analytically tractable(and controlled)periodical switching entails solution of an explicit non-convex multi-parameter optimization problem for which a stochastic optimization algorithm from the literature can be invoked.(ⅱ)Lower and upper bounds on the solutions of the system equations can be quantified to reflect the stability/instability/oscillatory property of the system.Illustrative examples,which demonstrate the novelty of the derived stability and instability conditions,are presented in part 2 which is advisedly to be read along with this part 1 for a coherent merging of theory with practice.
