This technical article presents novel robust stabilization conditions for discrete-time linear parameter-varying (LPV) systems with linear fractional representation (LFR). The proposed conditions rely on the use of slack variables and decision matrices associated with the LFR approach to provide new controller designs. In addition, we address parameter-dependent Lyapunov functions and full-block multipliers to obtain less conservative synthesis conditions for discrete-time LPV/LFR systems. Design conditions are cast in the form of linear matrix inequalities to generate robust state-feedback and output-feedback controllers. Numerical examples demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
