This paper is associated with the problem of robust stability of discrete-time systems with time-varying delays and finite wordlength nonlinearities. The main contribution of the paper is two-fold. First, this paper presents a new Lyapunov function based on the idea of partitioning the delay interval into subintervals. The approach may be considered as an advancement over the several existing approaches where only the lower delay bound is partitioned. The second is that reciprocally convex inequality (RCI) and Wirtinger-based inequality (WBI) are used to estimate the sum terms involved in the forward difference of Lyapunov function. The intermediate delay is also included in the Lyapunov function to deal with the delay information more effectively. Finally, several examples are provided to illustrate the less conservatism of the proposed approach as compared to several existing results.
