Question

Uppose transmission rate of a channel is 32 kbps. If there are 8 routes from source to destination and each packet p contains 8000 bits. Total end to end delay in sending packet p is ................ (a) 2 sec (b) 3 sec (c) 4 sec (d) 1 sec

Answer 1

Since there are 8 routes we can send 8 packets (8*8000 bits) simultaneously

Total end to end delay= Transmission time = 8*8000/ 32*1000 = 2 sec
