Let a denote the rate of packets arriving at a link in packets/sec, and let μ denote the link’s transmission rate in packets/sec. Based on the formula for the total delay (i.e., the queuing delay plus the transmission delay) derived in the previous problem, derive a formula for the total delay in terms of a and μ.
How long does it take a packet of length 1,000 bytes to propagate over a link of distance 2,500 km, propagation speed 25.125 m/s, and transmission rate 2 Mbps? More generally, how long does it take a packet of length L to propagate over a link of distance d, propagation speed s, and transmission rate R bps? Does this delay depend on packet length? Does this delay depend on transmission rate?
Two hosts are connected by a single direct link. Link transfer the data at a rate of 107 bits/seconds. The distance between the two host is 5000 km and the propagation speed along the link is 2 x 105 kilometer per second. One host is sending a data of 10,000 bytes in a single packet to another host. Let T₁ be the transmission delay and Tp be the propagation delay. The difference between the propagation delay and the transmission delay in millisecond is
