1. (a) Specify the layers present in OSI reference model, and mention any two
important services provided by each layer. (5 Marks)
(b)· Suppose a file of size 100 KB (kilo bytes) has been send to a destination
host through an intermediate router. Assume that the network has been
configured with OSI reference model, and each layer introduces a delay
of 1 ms. A coaxial cable is connected between source to router and router
to destination. The length of the cable between source to router is 1000
kms and router to destination is 1500 km. The signal speed inside the
cable is -about 2,00,000 kmjsec and it supports the data rate of 1000 kbps.
Determine the time required to reach the file from source to destination.

2. (a) The generator polynomial for a (15,7) cyclic code is g(x) = l+x4 +x6 +x 7 +x8 •
Find the transmitted code vector T(x) for the message polynomial m(x) =
x 2 + x 3 + x 4 • (3 marks)
- (b) Assume that the first and last bits of the code vector T( x) for m( x) = x 2 +
x 3 + x 4 suffer transmission errors. Find the syndrome s(x) of the received
code vector R(x). (syndrome is the reminder obtained by dividing R(x)
by g(x).) (5 marks)
(c) Discuss the error detection capability of this coding scheme in view of (i)
single bit errors and (ii) burst errors. (2 marks)-
. .
3. (a) Suppose that a digitized TV picture is to be transmitted from a source.
Each picture consists of 480 x 500 pixels, where each pixel -can take one
of the 32 inten.sity values. Assume that 30 pictures are sent per second.
Determine whether the channel with 4.5 MHz bandwidth and a 30 dB
signal to noise ratio can support the TV transmission. ( 3 marks)
(b) Draw the signal waveforms for the data 10111001 ·using (i) NRZ-L, (ii)
NRZ-1, (iii) binary AMI and (iv) Manchester coding. (4 marks)
(c) Discuss different channel impairments present during data t~ansmission.
(3 marks)
4. (a) A channel has a bit rate of 4 kbps and a propagation delay of 20 msec.
Find what range of frame sizes does stop-and-wait ARQ give an efficiency
of at least 50 percent? ( 2 marks)
1
(b) Give the appropriate example in which (i) go-back-n ARQ fails if the
modulus m is equal to n and (ii) selective repeat ARQ fails if the modulus
m < 2n. Here, mod m is used to generate the sequence numbers and n
indicates the window size.. (4 marks)
(c) Discuss various framing techniques employed at the data link layer to
detect the frame boundaries. Explain different possible framing errors
occur during transmission. (4 marks)
