93. Given an infinite amount of buffer space. In the text it was stated that a satellite with two uplink and one downlink slotted ALOHA channels can achieve a downlink utilization of

  • Option : C
  • Explanation : The probability of success (i.e. exactly one frame in a slot) = 1 / e  ~ 0.368.
    Then probability of a failure (no frames or multiple frames) = 0.632.
    Thus joint probabilities of the two uplink channels are :
    success on 1 and success on 2 : 0.135 (2 frames sent)
    success on 1 and failure on 2 : 0.233 (1 frame sent)
    failure on 1 and success on 2 : 0.233 (1 frame sent)
    failure on 1 and success on 2 : 0.399 (0 frames sent)
    Then expected number of success per slot.
    E = 0.35 * x + 0.233 * 1 + 0.233 * 1 + 0.399 * 0 = 0.270 + 0.233 + 0.233 = 0.736

94. In time division switches, if each memory access takes 100 ns and one frame period is 125ms, then maximum number of lines that can be supported is

  • Option : A
  • Explanation : In time division switches 2nT = 1 frame period, where T = memory access time.
