NONLINEAR OBSERVER DESIGN FOR L-V SYSTEM

This paper investigates the exponential observer problem for the Lotka-Volterra (L-V) systems. We have applied Sundarapandian’s theorem (2002) for nonlinear observer design to solve the problem of observer design problem for the L-V systems. The results obtained in this paper are applicable to solve the problem of nonlinear observer design problem for the L-V models of population ecology in the food webs. Two species L-V predator-prey models are studied and nonlinear observers are constructed by applying the design technique prescribed in Sundarapandian’s theorem (2002). Numerical simulations are provided to describe the nonlinear observers for the L-V systems
