Assume a system of 32 cells with a cell radius of 1.6 km, a total of 32 cells, a total frequency bandwidth that supports 336 traffic channels, and a reuse factor of N=7. If there are 32 total cells, what geographic area is covered, how many channels are there per cell, and what is the total number of concurrent calls that can be handled. ⦁ What is the difference between a virtual channel and a virtual path? ⦁ How does Fast Ethernet differ from 10BASE-T, other than the data rate?

We define data link layer communication efficiency as the ratio between a packet transmission time and the sum of the the packet transmission time and twice of its propagation time. A channel has a bit rate of 10 kbps and a propagation delay of 10,000 micro-second. For what range of frame sizes (in number of bit) does stop-and-wait give an efficiency of at most 90%?
If a two port bridge was used in a heavy load standard Ethernet network such that the traffic is going through it. If each station is theoretically given a capacity of5Mbpsand the number of stations in each LAN segment is equal, then the number of stations in each LAN is:
We define data link layer communication efficiency as the ratio between a packet transmission time and the sum of the the packet transmission time-and twice of its, propagation time.

A 1-km-long, 10-Mbps CSMA/CD LAN (i.e., Classic Ethernet)has a propagation speed of 200 m/μsec (i.e., how fast the radio signal moves on the link). Thereare no repeaters in this system. Data frames are 512 bits long, including 480 bits of payload (i.e.,effective data) and 32 bits of overhead (e.g., header, checksum, and other overhead fields). Everydata frame should be confirmed by a 64-bit ACK frame. We assume the sender needs to use onecontention slot to seize the channel before transmitting the data frame, and the receiver needsto use one contention slot to seize the channel before transmitting the ACK frame. Answer thefollowing questions: a. What is the minimum length of a contention slot in μsec? b. What is the effective data rate for the sender to send one data frame? Assume that there areno collisions. Show the calculation c. What would be the impact on the total delay and the effective data rate if we used a longerdata payload size in the data frame?

Suppose a switch is built using a computer workstation and that it can forward packets at a rate of 500,000 packets per second, regardless (within limits) of size. Assume the workstation uses direct memory access (DMA) to move data in and out of its main memory, which has a bandwidth of 2 Gbps, and that the I/O bus has a bandwidth of 1 Gbps. At what packet size would the bus bandwidth become the limiting factor?
