The formula to calculate the transmission delay is:
\[ TD = \frac{S}{B} \]
Where:
A transmission delay is a measure of the time it takes to put a data packet onto a transmission link. Transmission delay is also commonly referred to as store-and-forward delay or packetization delay because, in essence, it’s the time it takes for a packet to be pushed onto a wire.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ TD = \frac{1000}{100} = 10 \text{ seconds} \]
The transmission delay would be 10 seconds.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ TD = \frac{500}{200} = 2.5 \text{ seconds} \]
The transmission delay would be 2.5 seconds.
