In this paper, I study a planar m-piecewise discontinuous polynomial differential system x ˙ = y , y ˙ = x ε ( f ( x , y ) + g m ( x , y ) h ( x ) ), which has a linear center in each zone partitioned by those switching lines, where f ( x , y ) = i + j = 0 n a i j x i y j , h ( x ) = j = 0 l b j x j , a i j , b j R , n , l N , and g m ( x , y ) with the positive even number m as the union of m / 2 different straight lines passing through the origin of coordinates dividing the plane into sectors of angle 2 π / m. Using the averaging theory, I provide the lower bound L m ( n , l ) for the maximun number of limit cycles, which bifurcates which bifurcating from the annulus of the origin of this system.
