nication
Time: 3 hrs. Max. Marks:100
Note: l. Answer any FIVE
full
questions.
2. Any missing data may be assumed suitably.
I a. Explain why most data networks operate in a packet mode and discuss how services
involving audio and video are supported. (10 Marks)
b. A packet switched network with a worst case
jitter
of 0.0lps is to be used for a number of
applications each of which involves constant bit rate information stream. Determine the
minimum irmount of memory that is required at the destination and a suitable packet size for
each of the following input bit rates. Assume the mean packet transfer rate of the network
exceeds the equivalent input bit rate in each case. i) 64 kbps ii) 256 kbps
iii) 1.5 Mbps
2 a. With neat diagrams, explain the following : i) Digital subscriber line
access iii) Aggregation iv) Primary rate access.
(10 Marla)
ii) Basic rate
(10 Marks)
b. What are
QOS
in multimedia systems? Discuss. (07 Marks)
c. Deterrnine the maximum block size that could be used over a channel, which has a mean
BER probability of 10-s. The probability of a block containing an error is 10-2. (03 Marks)
3 a. With an example, show how the 7
-
bit ASCII character set can be extended to create
additional characters and symbols. State one of the uses of an extended character set.
(08 Marks)
b. Define the meaning of the following, with respect to graphical images : i) Visual object
ii) Free form object iii) Clip art. (06 Marks)
c. An analog signal has a dynamic range of 40d8. Determine the magnitude of the
quantization noise relative to the minimum signal amplitude if the quantizer uses i) 6 bits
ii) 10 bits. (06 Marks)
4 a. Justiff the need for compression in multimedia communication, Discuss the main types of
compression techniques used. (I0 Marks)
b. Identify the main features of MIDI standards and its associated messages. (06 Marks)
c. Determine the rate of the sampler and the bandwidth of the band limiting filter in an encoder
which is to be used for the digitization of an analog signal which has a bandwidth from
llHzthrough l0kHz assuming the digitized signal.
i) Is to be stored within the memory of computer.
ii) Is to be transmitted over a channel which has a bandwidth from 20AHz through 3.4 kHz.
(04 Marks)
Two computers are communicating with each other over a PSTN. The messages comprise the
characters I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P. Analysis shows that the relative frequency of occurrence of
each characteris as follows : l&J =0.25,K& L =0.14, M, N, O, P=0.055.
a. Use Shannon's formula to derive the minimum average number of bits per character.
b. Use Huffman coding to derive a codeword set and prove this is the minimum set by
constructing the coffesponding Huffman code tree.
