Question
Consider two hosts and , connected by a single direct link of rate bits/sec. The distance between the two hosts is km and the propagation speed along the link is m/sec. Host sends a file of bytes as one large message to host continuously. Let the transmission and propagation delays be milliseconds and milliseconds, respectively. Then the values of and are
Correct answer
(D) p=400 and q=50
Solution
1.Calculate Transmission Delay ():
2.Calculate Propagation Delay ():
