The stabilizing decentralized controller design problem for (possibly descriptor-type) linear time-invariant neutral time-delay systems is considered. A design approach, based on the continuous pole placement algorithm and the decentralized pole assignment algorithm, is proposed. A design example is also presented, to demonstrate the proposed approach.
