Question: A Wi - Fi network has the following features: Physical layer transmission rate: 5 4 M b p s MAC layer header: 2 8 bytes

A Wi-Fi network has the following features:
Physical layer transmission rate: 54Mbps
MAC layer header: 28 bytes
MAC layer payload: 1452 bytes
ACK and CTS frames: 14 bytes
RTS frames: 20 bytes
SIFS: 16s
DIFS: 34s
Define MAC layer throughput as the number of bits sent by the MAC layer in a
given period of time. Ignore the propagation time and assume the station will
immediately send the data if the channel is idle after waiting DIFS. Assuming that
there are two stations (one is the access point) continuously exchanging data using
802.11 CSMA/CA, what is the MAC layer throughput?
