| Popis: | Fertilization is commonly used to increase harvests. The lack of knowledge of soil properties and the excessive use of fertilizers can result in overfertilization. Current sensor technology is able to measure the concentrations of some of the involved substances only at selected locations and depths. Point measurements of adjacent sensors in coarse sensor networks can be used to infer upon the state of nitrate concentrations in the sensor surroundings. For this purpose, a high gain observer is proposed. Models of the nitrification process as well as the measurement dynamics for the observer design are derived and discretized on a grid to obtain a system of ordinary differential equations. It is shown that the nonlinearities of the model can be bounded and how the observer gain can be computed via linear matrix inequalities. Furthermore, a model reduction is proposed, which allows the consideration of more grid points. A simulation study demonstrates the proposed approach.
