Quiz1 Solution - 2023

The document appears to be a 10 question quiz for a communication networks course. It covers topics like network topologies, the OSI model, analog and digital signals, Fourier analysis, and signal power measurements. The quiz asks students to identify things like the number of links needed in a star network, which network layer addresses routers use, where port numbers are identified, and properties of simple sine waves. It also includes questions asking students to calculate signal bandwidths, attenuation between points, and conversions between dBw and dBm units.

Quiz 1

Student Name: _____________________________________________________

Student Number:____________________________________________________
1). In a star topology LAN with five computers and a switch, we need ________ links. (1 point)
(a) 6
(b) 1
(c) 5
(d) None of the choices are correct

2) When a host on network A sends a message to a host on network B, which address does the router
connecting these two networks look at? (1 point)
(a) MAC address
(b) IP address
(c) port address
(d) all of the mentioned addresses

3). In the TCP/IP protocol suite, a port number is the identifier at the____________.(1 point)
(a) application layer
(b) transport layer
(c) network layer
(d) physical layer

4). Which of the following statement is NOT correct? (1 point)


(a) A simple sine wave can be represented by one single spike in the frequency domain.
(b) The phase of a simple sine wave can be represented in the time domain.
(c) The phase of a simple sine wave can be represented in the frequency domain.
(d) The frequency of a simple sine wave can be represented in the time domain.

5). A signal is decomposed into three sine waves with frequencies of 100, 300, and 500 Hz. This signal
is a________________. (1 point)
(a) periodic analog signal
(b) non-periodic analog signal
(c) periodic digital signal
(d) non-periodic digital signal
6). Use one or two sentences to briefly describe the advantage of packet switching over circuit
switching. (1 point)
There are no predetermined path and packets share network resources.
Packet switching is more efficiently utilizing network resources as compared with circuit switching.
Better use of line and network capacity

7) A sine wave has peak amplitude equal to A, frequency equal to 1 Hz, and phase equal to 90° (i.e.,
π/2). Draw a diagram to show the shape of the sine wave in time domain, clearly indicating the value of the
sine wave at time zero and the period of the sine wave. (1 point)

8) A composite analog signal is decomposed into four sine waves as follows.


s(t) = 10sin(2π×100t) + 5sin(2π×200t) + 2sin(2π×500t) + 6sin(2π×800t).
What is the bandwidth of this signal? Draw the signal in the frequency domain. (1 point)
Bandwidth = 800-100 = 700Hz (0.5 mark)

(0.5 mark)

9) A signal is measured at two different points P1 and P2. The attenuation between the two points is −3dB.
The power is 4W at the second point P2, determine the power at the first point P1. (1 point)

10log(P2/P1)= -3dB => P2/P1 = 0.5


P2= 4W ➔ P1= 8W

10) The power of a signal is 10 dBw, determine the corresponding dBm value of this signal. (1 point)

10log(P/1W)= 10 dBw => P = 10W = 10000 mW


10log(10000mW/1mW) = 40 dBm
