| Summary: | This paper introduces a novel Gramian-based quantitative metric to evaluate the disturbance rejection capabilities of linear unstable systems. The proposed metric addresses key limitations of the previously introduced degree of disturbance rejection (DoDR) metrics, including their dependency on the final time and numerical problems arising from differential equation computations. Specifically, this study defines the steady-state solution of the DoDR metric, which avoids numerical issues by relying only on solving four algebraic equations, even when the Gramian matrices diverge. This study further strengthens its contributions by providing rigorous mathematical proofs supporting the proposed method, ensuring a strong theoretical foundation. The derived results demonstrate that the proposed metric represents the sum of the steady-state input energies required to reject the disturbances in the asymptotically stable and anti-stable subsystems. Numerical examples demonstrated that the proposed metric maintained the physical meaning of the original DoDR while offering practical computational advantages. This study represents a significant step toward the efficient and reliable assessment of disturbance rejection capabilities in unstable systems. |
