A discrete model describing the increase and decrease of blood cells is considered in this paper. This hematopoiesis model is a discretization of a delay differential equation with unimodal production function whose coefficients and delays are periodic discrete functions withω-period. This paper is concerned with the existence of positiveω-periodic solutions. Our results are proved by using the well-known continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory. The existence range of the positiveω-periodic solutions is also clarified. A concrete example and its simulation are also given to illustrate our result. Finally, we examine how positive numbers and coefficients making up our model influence the upper and lower limits of blood cell counts.
