Reduce The Block Diagram Shown in To A Single Transfer Function

The document discusses reducing a block diagram to a single transfer function by finding the equivalent transfer function T(s)=C(s)/R(s) for the system shown. It defines key terms used for this process such as loop gain, forward-path gain, non-touching loops, and non-touching loop gain which are elements of the signal flow graph and Mason's rule used to derive the transfer function.

Reduce the block diagram shown in to a single transfer function.


Find the equivalent transfer function, T(s)=C(s)/R(s) for the system shown in
Figure 2.7.
Signal flow graph and Mason’s rule
• Loop gain – the product of branch gains found
by traversing a path that starts at a node and
ends at the same node without passing
through any other node more that once and
following the direction of the signal flow.
• Forward-path gain – the product of gains
found by traversing a path from the input
node to the output node of the signal flow
graph in the direction of signal flow.
• Non-touching loops – loops that do not have
any nodes in common.
• Non-touching-loop gain – the product of loop
gains from non-touching loops taken two,
three, four,..., at a time
