The stability and stabilization of discrete-time linear positive switched systems are discussed in this paper. First, based on the concept of the forward mode-dependent average dwell time, a stability result for discrete-time linear positive switched systems is obtained by utilizing the multiple linear copositive Lyapunov functions. Then, by introducing multiple-sample Lyapunov-like functions variation, a new exponential stability result is derived. Finally, the conditions for the existence of mode-dependent stabilizing state feedback controllers are investigated, and two illustrative examples are given to show the correctness of the theoretical results obtained.
