Suppose, It is 02:00:00 PM in your clock and you start transmitting the frames from station A. The network is using CSMA/CD. Given, the 10 minutes propagation time from the station A to station D including all the necessary delays,a) What is the time in your clock after completing the transmission of the frames if you want to detect the possible collision in the worst case scenario?
Question
Suppose, It is 02:00:00 PM in your clock and you start transmitting the frames from station A. The network is using CSMA/CD. Given, the 10 minutes propagation time from the station A to station D including all the necessary delays,a) What is the time in your clock after completing the transmission of the frames if you want to detect the possible collision in the worst case scenario?
Solution
In the worst-case scenario, a collision can occur if a frame is sent from station A and, before it reaches station D, another frame is sent from station D. This would mean that the frame from station D is sent after the frame from station A has been fully transmitted but before it has been received.
Given that the propagation time from station A to station D is 10 minutes, the worst-case scenario for detecting a collision would be if a frame was sent from station D exactly 10 minutes after the frame from station A was sent.
Therefore, if you start transmitting the frames at 02:00:00 PM, you would need to wait until 02:10:00 PM to be sure that no collision has occurred. This is because it takes 10 minutes for the frame to propagate from station A to station D, and you need to wait for this propagation to complete to be sure that no other frames have been sent from station D in the meantime that could cause a collision.
So, the time in your clock after completing the transmission of the frames if you want to detect the possible collision in the worst-case scenario would be 02:10:00 PM.
