1.

What is the appropriate bit rate and signal levels if the SNR is 63 and
channel bandwidth is 1 MHz?
2. What are the propagation time and transmission time for a message of
5 Megabytes if the bandwidth of the network is 1 Mbps? Assume the
distance between the sender and receiver is 12000 km and that light
travels at 2.4 x 108 m/sec.
3. What is the SNR needed to put a T-1 Carrier on a 50 kHz transmission
line?
4. If a user is interested to transmit images of size 480 x 640 pixels, and
each pixel is represented by 24-bits over optical fiber cable. To transmit
60 images/sec, how much bandwidth is required and how many
microns of wavelength are needed for this band at 1.30 microns?
