This paper investigates the H ∞ state estimation problem for a class of discrete-time nonlinear singularly perturbed complex networks (SPCNs) under the Round-Robin (RR) protocol. A discrete-time nonlinear SPCN model is first devised on two time scales with their discrepancies reflected by a singular perturbation parameter (SPP). The network measurement outputs are transmitted via a communication network where the data transmissions are scheduled by the RR protocol with hope to avoid the undesired data collision. The error dynamics of the state estimation is governed by a switched system with a periodic switching parameter. A novel Lyapunov function is constructed that is dependent on both the transmission order and the SPP. By establishing a key lemma specifically tackling the SPP, sufficient conditions are obtained such that, for any SPP less than or equal to a predefined upper bound, the error dynamics of the state estimation is asymptotically stable and satisfies a prescribed H ∞ performance requirement. Furthermore, the explicit parameterization of the desired state estimator is given by means of the solution to a set of matrix inequalities, and the upper bound of the SPP is then evaluated in the feasibility of these matrix inequalities. Moreover, the corresponding results for linear discrete-time SPCNs are derived as corollaries. A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed state estimator design scheme.
