Consider the signal flow graph below and identify the
following
following
• There are four loops
following
∆i = value of Δ for the part of the block diagram that does not touch
the i-th forward path (Δi = 1 if there are no non-touching loops to the
i-th path.)

There are no non-touching loops, therefore R( s )
