If your protocol will be a sliding window protocol, how many bits do you need to represent the sequence numbers in the protocol, with the 2,000-byte frame? (Assume that the receiver window will be as large as the sender window. Also assume that the ack is so small that its transmission delay – but not its propagation delay – is negligible)

The alternating-bit protocol is the same as the SR protocol when both the transmitter window size and the receiver window size are set to 1. Is this statement true or untrue, and if it is, please provide a short explanation of your position?
Consider the task of developing a reliable protocol. If we assume the CRC code used is capable of detecting any errors (in our lifetime), we can implement reliability by tagging data packets and acknowledgments with sequence numbers. What is the minimum number of bits needed for these sequence numbers? Explain briefly.
Do you have any thoughts on the issues I've posed below? What do you think? This is because the alternating-bit protocol is equivalent to the SR protocol when both the sender's and receiver's window sizes are 1.
Assume that there is a consistent roundtrip delay between the sender and the receiver, and that the sender is aware of the delay. Is the inclusion of a timer in protocol RDT 3.0 still required, considering the possibility of packet loss? Explain.
Tell us if you think the following statements are true or incorrect and provide a short explanation for your vote. When both the sender's and receiver's window widths are 1, the alternating-bit protocol and the SR protocol are equivalent.
Assume a constant round-trip delay between the sender and receiver, and that the sender is aware of this delay before starting. Due to the probability of packet loss, is a timer still necessary in protocol rdt 3.0? Explain.
True or untrue, and provide a short justification for your answer: The alternating-bit protocol is the same as the SR protocol if the transmitter and receiver window sizes are both 1.
Assume that there is a constant roundtrip delay between the sender and the receiver, and that the sender is aware of this delay before proceeding. Is a timer still required in protocol rdt 3.0 because of the possibility of packet loss? Explain.
Q1. I Distinguish between the Go-Back-N ARQ and the Selective Repeat ARQ approaches. Use an example to demonstrate. Discuss the transmitter and receiver window sizes in each protocols.
We will assume that there is a constant roundtrip delay between the sender and the recipient. Is a timer still required in protocol rdt 3.0 given the possibility of packet loss? Explain.
In the GO back N sliding window protocol the value of N is 70% of the factor 'a: Where 'a' is the ratio of propagation time to the transmission time. The efficiency of GBN is 30 %. What will be the transmission time in a micro sec of the protocol where the length of the channel is 900 m and the speed on which signal propagates is similar to the speed of light in a vacuum?
