1. The signal flow graph shown in the figure below has two parallel and two isolated (non-
touching) loops. Determine the overall transmittance of relating x2 and x1.

2. Represent the following set of equations by a signal flow graph and determine the overall
gain relating to x5 and x1.
x2 = ax1+fx2
x3 = bx2+ex4
x4 = cx3+hx5
x5 = dx4+gx2

3. Draw signal flow graph for a system whose block diagram is shown in the figure below.
Identify the forward paths, individual loops and determine the relation C/R.
4. The block diagram representation of a control system is given below. Draw the signal flow
graph to determine the overall transfer function.

5. Draw the signal flow graph for a control system whose block diagram representation is
given below and determine C/R.
