Consider the following scenario: Frames of 12000 bits are sent over a 400kbps channel using a satellite whose propagation delay is 270ms. Acknowledgements are always piggybacked onto data frames. (That is, in the case of stop-and-wait, the next frame cannot be transmitted until the entire frame containing the acknowledgement is received.) Five-bit sequence numbers are used. What is the maximum achievable channel utilization for (a) Stop-and-wait. (b) Protocol 5 (i.e., Go Back N). (c) Protocol 6 (i.e., Selective Repeat)
