For this reasons, a robust controller that allows dealing with large variation in operating conditions is proposed to control the water level of a multi-pool open irrigation canal prototype. The main objective of this study is to regulate the downstream level of each canal's pool at a constant value even with inflow disturbances.  The robust controller is designed and tested in simulation for different operating conditions. The results obtained show the good behavior and the effectiveness of the designed controller.</span>
