The problem of determination of sensitivity functions with respect to variations in system parameters and in the initial state is solved for linear dynamic systems using the orthogonal series approach. By means of this technique the problem becomes algebraic. A simple relation between the solutions of a class of matrix algebraic equations is derived. This important algebraic result, applied to the approximate sensitivity problem, leads to a significant simplification of the computational procedure and reduces the computational effort.
