Question

(a) Suppose N packets arrive simultaneously to a link at which no packets are currently being 

transmitted or queued.Each packet is of length L and the link has transmission rate R. What is

the average queuing delay for the N packets?

a. What is the average queuing delay for the N packets? Should this question not be "What is the queuing delay of the Nth packet? If so then this is (N-1)*L/R

b. What is the average queuing delay of a packet? The average queuing delay for 1 packet when we have N packets will be (N-1)*(L/(2R))
