1. Show the contents of the output frames for a synchronous TDM multiplexer that combines three sources sending the following characters. Note that the characters are sent in the same order that they are typed. Multiplexing unit is 2 characters.
a. Source 1 message:MUHAMMAD
b. Source 2 message: DHAKA
c. Source 3 message:NABINAGAR
2. Assume the message to be sent comprises 120 octets. Each packet contains 4 octets of control information. These packets are first transmitted from X to a then to b then to c and to Y. Ignoring switching time, calculate the total transmission time for 6-packet message and 10-packet message. Which of the case will be better for this transmission.
3. Five equal-size datagrams belonging to the same message leave for the destination one after another. However, they travel through different paths as shown in following table:
Datagram Visited Switches
1 1,3,5
2 1,2,5
3 1,2,3,5
4 1,4,5
5 1,4,3,5
Draw the whole transmission scenario of this switching network.
