[edit] Observations

Some comments to improve the article:

1. Return Ratio (T) = - Loop Gain (L), they are equal in magnitude, but different sign in the case you mentioned.
2. I think the example is good; considering r_o as well as R_S, since both resistors (although in this case in parallel with others) are important when dealing with input/output impedances.
3. I also agree in that R_D should be called R_C, to follow the traditional nomenclature for the BJT (just as V_CC).

[edit] Simplifying example

I think it would be clearer if the example could be simplified.

• A simpler transistor model neglecting r_o would make the figures and equations more compact and at no real loss of generality since r_o is just in parallel with R_D (why's it called "R_D"?)
• R_S could also be neglected
