Necessary and sufficient stability condition for second-order switched systems: a phase function approach

To find a unified approach for the stability analysis of second-order switched system, the concept of phase function is proposed in this paper. First, the basic properties of phase function are explored. Following this concept and its properties, the phase-based stability criterion is investigated based on the Lyapunov theory, and a necessary and sufficient stability condition is obtained in the phase function approach. Moreover, the connection...
