| Question 1 |
On a wireless link, the probability of packet error is 0.2. A stop-and-wait protocol is used to transfer data across the link. The channel condition is assumed to be independent from transmission to transmission. What is the average number of transmission attempts required to transfer 100 packets?

Question 1 Explanation:
Total no. of re-transmissions for one frame, in general, is 1/(1-P) where P is probability of error.
So here it would be for one frame = 1/(1-0.2) = 1/0.8
So for 100 frames = 100/0.8 = 125
So here it would be for one frame = 1/(1-0.2) = 1/0.8
So for 100 frames = 100/0.8 = 125
Correct Answer: B
