Chapter 1, Problem P7P

Explanation of Solution

The first present in the packet can be transmitted after generating all the bits required.

The time required to transmit the packet can be calculated by using the following expression.

Timerequired=NumberofbitsTransmissionrateofthepacket

Note: 1Byte=8bits and 1kbps=103bps

Substitute, “56×8” for “Number of bits” and “64×103” for “Transmission rate of the packet” is given below:

The time required to transmit the first bit is 56×864×103=7msec.

The time required to transmit the packet is 56×82×106=224×10-6sec(or)224μsec
