Observer based robust fuzzy tracking control: application to an activated sludge process.

The design of an observer-based robust tracking controller is investigated and successfully applied to control an Activated Sludge Process (ASP) in this study. To this end, the Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy modeling is used to describe the dynamics of a nonlinear system with disturbance. Since the states of the system are not fully available, a fuzzy observer is designed.
