We consider the existence of solutions with periods equal or multiple to the period of theexternal perturbation and two points of switching within period. The problem is solved in the case where the collection ofsimple real eigenvalues of the matrix of the system contains an eigenvalue equal to zero. By a nonsingular transformation,the system is reduced to a canonical system of a special form that enables us to perform its analysis by analytic methods. Wepropose an approach to finding the points of switching for the representation point of the periodic solution and to a choiceof the parameters of the nonlinearity and the feedback vector. We prove a theorem on necessary conditions for the existenceof the periodic solutions of the system. Sufficient conditions for the existence of the required solutions are established. Wealso perform an analysis of stability of the solutions by using the point mapping and the fixed-point method. We present anexample that confirms the accumulated results. ER -
