The paper deals with the problems of technical stability of autonomous regulation systems with variable structure [see \textit{L. T. Ashchepkov}, Optimal control of discontinuous systems, Nauka, Novosibirsk (1987; Zbl 0688.49016); \textit{S. V. Emel'yanov, V. I. Utkin, V. A. Taran}, \textit{N. Kostyleva}, \textit{A. Subladzhe}, \textit{V. Ezerov}, and \textit{E. Dubrovskii}, Theory of systems with variable structure, Nauka, Moskva (1970; Zbl 0223.93004)]. The proposed conditions of technical stability are based on the application of the function \[ \bar V(t,x)=\exp[\beta_1(t)][W(t,x)],\tag{1} \] where \(W(t,x)\) is taken with respect to the motion equations, and one integral inequality [see \textit{J. Szarski}, Differential inequalities, PWN, Warszawa (1967; Zbl 0171.01502), Corollary 22.1]. Remarks. 1. The notion of technical stability used in the paper was introduced by K. A. Karacharov and A. G. Pilyutik in 1963 for continuous systems. 2. The function of (1) type was proposed by N. N. Krasovskii in 1954. No references to these works are found in the paper.
