In this paper, a hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection model with logistic hepatocyte growth is investigated, and the basic reproduction number of HBV determining the extinction and the persistence of infection is obtained. When the basic reproduction number is less than one, the infection becomes extinct eventually; when the basic reproduction number is greater than one, the infection becomes
