Now, lets draw the complete signal flow graph of this circuit, and then reduce the graph to determine:
a) The total current through load L . b) The power delivered to (i.e., absorbed by ) port 1x. The signal flow graph describing this network is:

Now, lets used this simplified signal flow graph to find the solutions to our questions! a) The total current through load L . The total current through the load is:
I L = I ( z 2y = z 2yP )
= = =
+ V02y ( z2y = z2yP ) V02y ( z 2y = z2yP )
a2y b2y
Z0
50 b2y a2y 50
Thus, we need to determine the value of nodes a2y and b2y. Using the series rule 1 on our signal flow graph:
a1x = j 2
j 0.5

j 0.4

and:
Therefore:

b) The power delivered to (i.e., absorbed by ) port 1x. The power delivered to port 1x is:
Pabs = P + P
= =
+ V1x ( z1x = z1xP ) 2

Thus, we need determine the values of nodes a1x and b1x. Again using the series rule 1 on our signal flow graph:
a1x = j 2
