Assume the data link protocol used by NDAS has the following associated characteristics: An 8-bit ASCII code is used. Each frame has a size (length) of 11936 bits. A half-duplex circuit with a speed of 1 million bits per second is used for transmission. There is a 30-millisecond turnaround time on the half-duplex circuit. Each frame contains 20 overhead (non-user-data) bytes. Assume that the probability of a frame requiring retransmission due to error in transmission is 1 percent. A millisecond is one-thousandth of a second. Also, 8 bits = 1 character = 1 byte. Use the formula provided by American National Standards Institute (ANSI) to calculate throughput (i. e., transmission rate of information bits (TRIB) is as follows: Refer to class discussions for formula.
