	abstract = {An extension of Rosenbrock{\textquoteright}s design method for linear multivariable systems is presented, based on the concept of block diagonal dominance for rational transfer function matrices. The technique allows independent~design of compensators for low-interacting subsystems. The flexibility of the method with respect to partitioning and measures of gain leads to improved estimates for overall system stability under decentralized compensator~designs. Various new directions and extensions suggested by our methods are discussed and examples illustrate the theory.},
