2. What is the end-to-end packet delay in this store-and-forward subnet from router 1 to router 6
under the scenario that when a packet from router 1 arrives at router 15 there are three
packets enqueued for the link to router 17?
Assume: All links: 2.5 km; C = 100Mbps; propagation speed = 200m/microsec.
processing delay =0; all packet sizes = 1000 bytes
Implied Assumption: queues at 1, 14, and 17 are empty when the packet arrives at node 15.
Required Insight: there will be no queuing delay at 17 even if all three queued packets are going to 6.
Solution:
end-to-end packet delay = 4 (equal hops) x link delay + queuing delay at node 15.
link delay = PROC +QD + TRANS + PROP = 0 + 0 + transmission time + propagation delay
1000 bytes 8 x 103 bits
transmission time = ------------- = ----------------- = 8 x 10-5 = 80 microseconds.
100 Mbps 108 bps
2500 m
prop delay = ---------------------- = 12.5 microseconds
200 m/ microsec
link delay = 92.5 microseconds
queueing delay at node 15 = 3 packets * transmission time = 3* 80 microseconds = 240 microseconds
end-to-end subnet delay = 4 x 92.5 + 240 = 610 microseconds
5. How does the end-to-end packet delay determination change when we send
a packet from Host E to wireless Host W1?

6. How does the end-to-end packet delay determination change when we send
a packet from Host F to Host Z that is on the Ethernet LAN?
