Question: Consider a transport layer connection using stop-and-wait Protocol (no pipelining: window size=1), where the sender is sending 1000 Byte packets and the Round Trip Time

Consider a transport layer connection using stop-and-wait Protocol (no pipelining: window size=1), where the sender is sending 1000 Byte packets and the Round Trip Time (RTT) is 99 ms. Assume that the data rate of the connection is 1MBps, there are no losses, ACKs are negligible in size and ACKs are reliable.

a. What is the throughput of the connection in bits per second?

b. If there is a 100 byte header in each packet of 1000 bytes, what is the effective data throughput? (Hint: only 900 of every 1000 bytes transmitted is data)

c. If additionally, there is a 10% average data loss (but acks are reliable), what is the average data throughput?
