In a network, two systems are connected and the distance between the system is 5000 km. The propagation speed of the medium is 2 x 107 m/s. The bandwidth of the network is 500 MBps. If the average packet size is 108 bits and the network is used to its full capacity. The minimum size of the sequence number field is n bits. The processing delay at nodes is 0 ms. What is the value of n in case of Go-Back-N sliding window protocol?
Let the two host X and Y connected via a packet switch with 107 bits per second links. Switch is placed at 50 km from X. X and Y are located at 100 Kilometer apart also the propagation speed along the link is 2 × 108 m/s. The switch begins forwarding a packet after 0.1 milliseconds it receives the packet. If 1000 bytes of File are needed to be transmitted and each packet size is 500 bytes, the time elapsed between the transmission of the first bit of data and the reception of the last bit of the data in millisecond is
A TCP connection is established through 10 wireless hops in an acoustic underwater ad hoc network. Assume that each hop is 100 meter in the average, acoustic signals travel 1500 meter per second, 10 kilobit data can be sent per second over a link, the source node has one megabyte of data to send, the receiver window size is 64 kilobytes, the maximum segment size is 1 kilobyte and the average processing delay for routing at each node is one millisecond. Assume also that the following segments do not reach the destination: 67, 112, 137. What would be the average utilization of the links for this connection if there is not another communications through them? Explain an alternative approach to increase the bandwidth utilization?

What is the transmission time of the packet at A (the time from when the first bit of the packet is sent into the wire and the time at which the last bit is sent into the wire). c. Suppose now that that length of the link is doubled. What is the propagation delay from A to B now and what is the transmission time? d. Now suppose that node C is connected to node B also by a 2 Mbps, 100 Km link. How long does it take from when the first bit is transmitted by A to when the last bit is received at C, assuming B operates in a store-and -forward manner?
A sender with window size (W=3) is connected to a selective repeat receiver by a link with bandwidth =106 bytes/second and propagation delay of 0.25 msec. The receiver sends Positive ACK for correctly received packets. For each packet sent, the sender sets a timer with time out value of 5 msec. On receiving an ack for a packet, the timer for that packet is cancelled. If the timer expires, that packet is retransmitted immediately. Assume that the sender sends packets 1, 2, and 3 (at t=0, packet size =1000 Bytes) and packet 2 is lost. NO other packet is lost. Under this scheme , at what time in msec would all the packets been received at the receiver.

In this problem, we consider sending real-time voice from Host A to Host B over a packet-switched network (VoIP). Host A converts analog voice to a digital 64 kbps bit stream on the fly. Host A then groups the bits into 56-byte packets and when a packet is formed, it is send to host B. There is one link between Hosts A and B; its transmission rate is 2 Mbps and its propagation delay is 10 msec. What's the elapsed time since when the first bit is formed (from the original analog signal at Host A) until the bit is received at host B?
In this problem, we consider sending real-time voice from Host A to Host B over a packet switched network (VoIP). Host A converts analog voice to a digital 64 kbps bit stream on the fly. Host A then groups the bits into 56-byte packets. There is one link between Hosts A and B; its transmission rate is 2 Mbps and its propagation delay is 10 msec. As soon as Host A gathers a packet, it sends it to Host B. As soon as Host B receives an entire packet, it converts the packet's bits to an analog signal. How much time elapses from the time a bit is created (from the original analog signal at Host A) until the bit is decoded (as part of the analog signal at Host B)?
It is theoretically feasible for two hosts to communicate with one another by sending packets back and forth over the same connection. Please enumerate all of the components that are responsible for the overall amount of time required to process a single packet, starting to end. Is it to be anticipated that one of the delays will continue for a certain amount of time, while the duration of the other delay will be more unpredictable?
