Propose the maximum link utilization for continuous flow control with a window size of 50 bits. The frame size is 2000 bits and it ís transmitted over 1-Mbps satellite channelwith 150 ms delay. [3 marks]
d.
A decimal number, 875, is to be transmitted as a binary number in a network from station A to station B. The pre-determined divisor
is 110101. The Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) scheme is used to detect if this message is accepted by both stations transm itted without error.
Generate the FCS and the message that should be transmitted from A to B by using modulo-2 arithmetic technique. [5 marks] il
Suppose that the seco;ld leftmost bit of the message is inverted due to noise in the transmission link. Propose a solution to this problem and justify your answer. [3 marks]
