In this paper, we consider the problem of delay-dependent robust stability of a class of uncertain discrete-time systems with time-varying delay using Lyapunov functional approach. Two categories of time-varying uncertainties are considered for the robust stability analysis: viz., (i) nonlinear perturbations and (ii) norm-bounded uncertainties. In the proposed stability analysis, by exploiting a candidate Lyapunov functional, and using minimal number of slack matrix variables, less conservative stability criteria are developed in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) for computing the maximum allowable bound of the delay-range, within which, the uncertain system under consideration remains asymptotically stable in the sense of Lyapunov. The effectiveness of the proposed stability criteria is demonstrated using standard numerical examples.
