Reliable stabilizing controller design with integral-action is considered for linear time-invariant, multi-input-multi-output decentralized systems with stable plants. Design methods are proposed to achieve reliable closed-loop stability with integral-action in each output channel for asymptotic tracking of step-input references applied at each input. The design approaches guarantee stability and integral-action in the active channels when all controllers are operational and when any of the controllers is set equal to zero due to failure.
