Abstract: A predator-prey model to reflect the dominant immune response to the bacterium, Haemophilus Influenzae, is given. Using our model, we investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of antibiotic treatments by formulating the control problem as an LMI. Given the resulting robust control strategy, simulations demonstrate its superiority.
