1. Draw all the signal, including input and output as
nodes.
2. Connect all the nodes by means of forward
branches. If theses nodes are connected by means
of a subsystem, give those branch a gain equals to
the close loop ratio/forward T/F of the subsystem.
3. If the signals of the forward branches are connected
directly, give those branch a unity gain.
Steps for SFG 4. For feedback loops, break the loops into two
branches connected via node representing the
construction feedback signal.
5. The first branch (before the node) is equal to the
primary feedback ratio (T/F) and the latter to the
node is equal to -1 (representing the loop as a
feedback).
6. Simplify the branches, eliminate unnecessary nodes.
7. If the block diagram includes summing and take off
points, analyse the nature (Forward/Feedback) of
the loop and apply rules 2-6 accordingly.

We form ∆k by eliminating from ∆ the loop gains that touch the kth forward path:
