To extend inverted decoupling control method to the non-square multivariable time delay system, this paper presents a block inverted decoupling control approach with internal model structure. In this method, the non-square system is divided into two subsystems, and the decoupling structure is composed of two blocks. Each block in the designed structure is applied to each subsystem. With the proposed method, complex matrix computations are avoided, and the designed controller has low order. The stability of closed-loop system with the proposed method is analyzed in the paper. Numerical simulations are performed to illustrate the effectiveness of this methodology.
