Summary This paper addresses stability and l2‐gain for discrete‐time switched systems with unstable modes based on slow/fast mode‐dependent average dwell time (MDADT) switching strategies. Firstly, by employing a class of multiple discontinuous Lyapunov functions (MDLFs) and developing a kind of alternative switching signals, the sufficient conditions on stability are established for the system without external disturbances under a slow/fast MDADT switching scheme with a tighter bounds on the dwell time. Furthermore, by defining indicator functions and exploring the features of slow/fast MDADT switching, the weighted l2‐gain conditions are achieved for the system with external disturbances. Particularly, the criteria of stability and l2‐gain are also established for the corresponding discrete‐time switched linear systems with unstable modes via the MDLFs method and the slow/fast MDADT switching strategy. Finally, two numerical examples are presented to illustrate the advantages of the proposed methods.

Summary In this paper, the tracking control problem for a class of nonlinear time‐delay multiagent systems with input saturation is considered. The nonlinear dynamics are dominated by strict‐feedback form and satisfy Lipschitz conditions with constant gains. First, it indicated that the tracking control problem is equivalent to a general bound problem of high‐dimensional multivariable systems. Second, an ingenious state transformation is utilized to change the bound problem into the parameter design problem. Third, by the static gain control technique and the hyperbolic tangent function, both state feedback and output feedback controllers are built such that all signals of the closed‐loop systems are globally bounded, and the tracking errors between the followers and the leader can converge to a small neighborhood around the origin by appropriately selecting parameters. Finally, an example is shown to verify the feasibility of our results.
