Almost global stability of nonlinear switched systems with mode-dependent and edge-dependent average dwell time

It has recently been shown that almost global stability of nonlinear switched systems can be characterized using multiple Lyapunov densities. This has been accomplished for switched systems subject to a minimum dwell time or an average dwell time constraint. In this paper, as an extension of the aforementioned results, we provide a sufficient condition on mode-dependent and edge-dependent average dwell time to ensure almost global stability of a nonlinear switched system. The relations between average dwell time, mode-dependent, and edge-dependent average dwell time have been discussed. The obtained results for nonlinear switched systems imply the existing results for linear switched systems.
