In this paper, the stability robustness of linear discrete-time singular systems with structured parameter perturbations is investigated. A new sufficient criterion is presented for ensuring that the linear discrete-time singular system remains regular, impulse-free, and asymptotically stable under structured parameter perturbations. The presented criterion is proved to be less conservative than the existing one reported recently.
