This paper presents a concurrent learning-based actor-critic-identifier architecture to obtain an approximate feedback-Nash equilibrium solution to an infinite horizon N-player nonzero-sum differential game. The solution is obtained online for a nonlinear control-affine system with uncertain linearly parameterized drift dynamics. It is shown that under a condition milder than persistence of excitation (PE), uniformly ultimately bounded convergence of the developed control policies to the feedback-Nash equilibrium policies can be established. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the performance of the developed technique without an added excitation signal.
