If the principal applicant has already immigrated to the US and is a legal permanent resident (LPR) when the petitioner dies, the derivative applicants (usually the children of the principal applicant) are generally still eligible to apply for an immigrant visa.

Principle petitioner or principal applicant is the person who is named in a petition.
So for example, if an American citizen has filed a petition for his married daughter for immigrating to the United States of America then the daughter will be known as the principal applicant.
The family member wi be getting a visa for her position.
A derivative status is hence obtained in this manner.
