LMI-Based Trajectory Tracking for a Class of Nonlinear Systems with Application to an Anaerobic Digestion Process

摘要

In this paper, we will present a novel systematic method to design observer-based tracking control for a class of Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) systems in the presence of Lipschitz nonlinearities. The work has been motivated by the aim to integrate Biogas Plants (BPs) in the power grid. Hence, due to the lack of autonomous and reliable sensors for Anaerobic Digestion (AD) processes, an exponential nonlinear observer will be incorporated in the control scheme. By using the Young's inequality in a judicious way, new and dilated Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) conditions will be provided to ensure the
