DCC Assignment 2

This document contains the answers to 7 questions about data and computer communications. It provides the bit rates for different signal durations, calculates transmission times for sending data at different rates, and determines the theoretical channel capacity and total delay for transmitting a data frame over a link with multiple routers. The dominant component of total delay is the transmission time, while the propagation time is negligible. It also draws the bandwidth of a periodic composite signal and calculates the attenuation in decibels between two points for a signal with different power levels.

Q.3
A TV channel has a bandwidth of 6 MHz if we send a digital signal using
one channel, what are the data rates if we use one harmonic, three
harmonics, and five harmonics?

Ans: For the 1st harmonic


If we use the 2nd harmonic

If we use the 5th harmonic

data rate = 2 6 =12mbps


data rate =

2 6
=4 mbps

data rate =

2 6

Q.6
What is the total delay (latency) for a frame of size 5 million bits that is
being sent on a link with 10 routers each having a queuing time of 2 s
and a processing time of 1 s. The length of the link is 2000 Km. The
speed of lightinside the link is 2 108 m/s. The link has a bandwidth of
5 Mbps. Which component of the total delay is dominant? Which one is
negligible?
Ans:
Queuing Time = 10 2 us = 20s
Processing Time = 10 1s = 10 s
Transmission Time =

distance 2000 103


Propagation Time = distance/ speed = speed = 2 108 =0.01 s
3

As we know that
Latency = Processing Time + Queuing Time + Transmission Time + Propagation Time
Latency = 10 s + 10 s + 1 s + 0.01 s = 1.010 s

Q.7 A periodic composite signal with a bandwidth of 2000 Hz is


composed of two sine waves. The first one has a frequency of 100 Hz
with maximum amplitude of 20 V; the second one has maximum
amplitude of 5 V. Draw thebandwidth.
Ans:

Q.8
A signal travels from point A to point B. At point A, the signal power
is100 W. At point B, the power is 90 W. What is the attenuation in
decibels?
Ans:

90
100
The attenuation in dB = =0.457 dB
