Network Calculations

Hi,

I need help with the following calculations i am having trouble with i dont want someone to do them just so me how to work them out they are as follows

• In a given system, IP packets are used to convey speech samples generated by various sources. For each source a sample is generated every 125 microseconds, and the sample is encoded using 8 binary bits. For a bit rate of 13 Mbps, how many sources can be accommodated?
• In a given system, IP packets are used to convey CD quality music samples generated by various sources. The sampling rate at each source is 44 KHz (44000 samples are made per second) and each sample is encoded using 16 binary bits. Assuming the bandwidth to be 100 Mbps, how many sources can be accommodated?

• Calculate the delay associated with the transmission of a packet (15 Kbytes long) from source to destination, with a physical distance

alrite dude! hows she going? this is my first reply, losing my virginity, first for everything :P. in my humble opinion... 1 microsecond is one millionth of a second(10−6). if there is 13mbps or 13631488 bits per second, or 13.631488 bits per microsecond... 1703.936 bits transferred in 125 microseconds... or one source.

yeah?! lol... been a while!

is this a masters, or phd question! now way this is undergrad!

sorry man one more thing 1 us(microsecond) is the cycle time of 1MHz.

Unfortunately all of this is correct except the last (highlighted step) which is wrong.

The method I would use for this is calculate the bandwidth of the source in bps (or kbps or Mbps). Then having done that you can get the number of sources that can be accommodated by dividing the link bandwidth by the bandwidth per source.
• Calculate the delay associated with the transmission of a packet (15 Kbytes long) from source to destination, with a physical distance
Physical distance is not really relevant to electrical links (OK it is a bit but it is not normally thought of in those terms) it is normal to quantify the speed of link is bps which is not directly related to distanced travelled.

Hi,

Any chance someone could show me how to work each calculation out slowly in steps

Thanks

Hi, I`m trying to do date calculations in three types of time zones: local, GMT and specified. The issue I am facing is that I need to be able to specify a date in the proper time zone, and I`m having a heck of a time doing so. I have created a form where I use drop downs do specify year, month, date, hour, minute and seconds. When the form is loaded, the dropdowns have to display the proper values for the current time zone type. This

Hi, I've been coming up against a failure of a report to display the result of a simple calculation. I have realised that this calculation cannot take place unless the field I am working on is displayed or is some way referred to in the report. am I right in this? It seems odd if the field is there in the underlying query. Is this right? Is there a way round?

There is a database which has combo boxes to allow users to select values from pre-set lists of common specifications. The form allows users to enter values that are not in the dropdown lists.

It seems when the user enters values that are not in the drop downs the calculations come back wrong, other wise...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
