Suppose the round-trip propagation delay for Ethernet is $46.4 \mu s$. This yields a minimum packet size of $512$ bits ($464$ bits corresponding to propagation delay $+\;48$ bits of jam signal). (a) What happens to the minimum packet size if the delay time is held constant, and the signalling rate rises to $100$ Mbps?

Coaxial cable Ethernet was limited to a maximum of $500$m between repeaters, which regenerate the signal to $100$% of its original amplitude. Along one $500$-m segment, the signal could decay to no less than $14$% of its original value $(8.5 dB)$ ... %. Such a signal, even along $2500$ m, is still strong enough to be read; why then are repeaters required every $500$ m?

Suppose $A$ is connected to $B$ via an intermediate router $R$, as in the previous problem.

Time = $0,1,2,3,4$, state what packets arrive at and are sent from A and B. How large does the queue at $R$ grow?
