3. a) Prove that in 4B/5B encoding, a signal transition will occur at least every four-bit [7M]
times.
b) Explain the frequency division multiplexing with a neat sketch. [7M]
4. a) Find the minimum Hamming distance for the following cases: [7M]
i) Correction of 2 errors and
ii) Detection of 3 errors or correction of 2 errors.
b) A block of bits with n rows and k columns uses horizontal and vertical parity bits [7M]
for error detection. Assume that exactly 4 bits are inverted due to transmission
errors. Derive an expression for the probability that the error will be undetected.
6. a) How does a virtual circuit differ from a physical circuit? What advantages would a [7M]
virtual circuit provide?
b) Explain the link-state routing protocol with an example. [7M]
7. a) Give the format of the UDP segment and TCP segment? Explain when UDP is [7M]
preferred to TCP.
b) Discuss the role played by the message transfer agent. [7M]
