Assume a constant transmission rate of R = 1700000 bps, a constant packet-length L = 3600 bits, and a is the average rate of packets/second. Traffic intensity I = La/R, and the queuing delay is calculated as I(L/R)(1 - I) for I < 1. Assuming that a = 33, what is the queuing delay?
I = (3600 * 33) / 1700000 = .0699 Queuing Delay = I(L/R)(1 - I) * 1000 = 0.0699*(3600/1700000)*(1-0.0699) * 1000 = 0.1377 ms.
Suppose that the packet length is L= 12000 bits, and that the link transmission rate along the link to router on the right is R = 100 Mbps. What is the transmission delay?
L/R = 12000 bits / 100000000 bps = 0.00012 seconds
link 1 Assume the length of a packet is 4000 bits. The speed of light propagation delay on each link is 3x10^8 m/sec transmission rate: 1000 mbps link length: 3 Km What is the transmission delay of link 1?
L/R = 4000 bits / 1000000000 bps = 4.00E-6 second
If the buffer has a maximum size of 998 packets, how many of the packets would be dropped upon arrival from the previous question? given 1683 packets arrive
Packets dropped = packets - buffer size = 1683 - 998 = 685 dropped packets.
Assuming the router's buffer is infinite, the queuing delay is 0.3182 ms, and 1683 packets arrive. How many packets will be in the buffer 1 second later?
Packets left in buffer = a - floor(1000/delay) = 1683 - floor(1000/0.3182) = 0 packets.

Suppose that the packet length is L= 12000 bits, and that the link transmission rate along the link to router on the right is R = 100 Mbps. What is the maximum number of packets per second that can be transmitted by this link?
R / L = 100000000 bps / 12000 bits = 8333 packets
What is the probability that more than 6 users are transmitting?
To find P(x = k), use binompdf(n,p,k) • To find P(x ≤ k), use binomcdf(n,p,k) • To find P(x < k), use binomcdf(n,p,k-1) • To find P(x > k), use 1-binomcdf(n,p,k) • To find P(x ≥ k), use 1-binomcdf(n,p,k-1)

link 1 Assume the length of a packet is 4000 bits. The speed of light propagation delay on each link is 3x10^8 m/sec transmission rate: 1000 mbps link length: 3 Km What is the propogation delay of link 1?

Suppose that every connection requires 2 consecutive hops, and calls are connected clockwise. For example, a connection can go from A to C, from B to D, from C to A, and from D to B. With these constraints, what is the is the maximum number of connections that can be ongoing in the network at any one time?
so to find the bottleneck link it's the min of the paths that the packet has to take for a packet to go a->c the bottle neck link is min(18, 16) which is 16 and from c->a its min(12, 11) = 11 so that value would be 11+16 = 27 you do the same for the b->d and d->b packet which gives you 12+11 = 23 then you do max(27, 23) so the answer is 27
