Abstract
This letter presents an extended analysis and a novel upper bound of the subclass of Linear Quadratic Near Potential Differential Games (LQ NPDG). LQ NPDGs are a subclass of potential differential games, for which there is a distance between an LQ exact potential differential game and the LQ NPDG. LQ NPDGs exhibit a unique characteristic: The smaller the distance from an LQ exact potential differential game, the more closer their dynamic trajectories. This letter introduces a novel upper bound for this distance. Moreover, a linear relation between this distance and the resulting trajectory errors is established, opening the possibility for further application of LQ NPDGs.
