The sensitivity of coupled continuous-time Riccati equations is analyzed through the norm of the inverse Lyapunov-like operator. This analysis leads to bounds on the perturbation of the solution. As a byproduct some properties of coupled Lyapunov equation and results on the stability of linear systems with jumps are presented.
