Q44.

The values of parameters for the Stop-and-Wait ARQ protocol are as given below: Bit rate of the transmission channel = 1Mbps Propagation delay from sender to receiver = 0.75 ms Time to process a frame = 0.25ms Number of bytes in the information frame =1980 Number of bytes in the acknowledge frame = 20 Number of overhead bytes in the information frame = 20 Assume that there are no transmission errors. Then the transmission efficiency ( expressed in percentage) of the Stop-and - Wait ARQ protocol for the above parameters is _________( correct to 2 decimal places)

Q45.

Frames of 1000 bits are sent over a 10^6 bps duplex link between two hosts. The propagation time is 25 ms. Frames are to be transmitted into this link to maximally pack them in transit (within the link). What is the minimum number of bits (I) that will be required to represent the sequence numbers distinctly? Assume that no time gap needs to be given between transmission of two frames.

Q50.

Consider two hosts X and Y, connected by a single direct link of rate 10^{6} bits/sec . The distance between the two hosts is 10,000 km and the propagation speed along the link is 2x10^{8} m/sec . Host X sends a file of 50,000 bytes as one large message to host Y continuously. Let the transmission and propagation delays be p milliseconds and q milliseconds, respectively . Then the values of p and q are
