Question

6. Suppose you wish to design a GBN sliding-window protocol for a 100 Mbps link spanning a distance of 10,000km. Link signals propagate at a velocity of 2 x 10* m/s. Your goal is to maximize link utilization while, as possible, minimizing unnecessary buffering. Given that the protocol's packet size is to be 100 kb determine, with justification: (a) your GBN protocol's transmit and receive window sizes W and W,, in packets, (b) the minimum size m, in bits, of your GBN protocol packet's sequence number field, and (c) an appropriate timeout TO, in seconds, for your GBN protocol's timer
