Summary

This work applies the quasi-LPV technique to the design of robust observers for a class of bioreactors. The system nonlinearities are modeled in terms of two time varying parameter vectors, θ(t) and δ(t). The vector θ(t) contains all nonlinear terms that are only function of the measurements, whereas the remaining terms are lumped into the vector δ(t). Then, a θ(t) parameter-dependent Luenberger-like observer is proposed, where the design conditions are given in terms of linear matrix inequality constraints. These conditions ensure regional stability w.r.t. to a set of admissible initial conditions and also minimizes an upper-bound on the L 2-gain of the error system. These results are applied to a high cell density bioreator.
