During the data transmission there are chances that the data bits in the frame might get corrupted. This will require the sender to re-transmit the frame and hence it will increase the re-transmission overhead. By considering the scenarios given below, you have to choose whether the packets should be encapsulated in a single frame or multiple frames in order to minimize the re-transmission overhead.

Justify your answer
Scenario A: Suppose you are using a network which is very prone to errors.

Scenario B: Suppose you are using a network with high reliability and accuracy.

1. Based on Scenario A, the packets should be encapsulated in multiple frames to minimize the re-transmission overhead.

This is because there will be the need to re-transmit the packets because the network environment is not reliable and accurate.  Therefore, a single frame may be too costly when the need for re-transmission arises.

2. Based on Scenario B, the packets should be encapsulated in a single frame because of the high level of network reliability and accuracy.  

There will not be further need to re-transmit the packets in a highly reliable and accurate network environment.  This environment makes a single frame better.

Encapsulation involves the process of wrapping code and data together within a class so that data is protected and access to code is restricted.

With encapsulation, each layer:

  • provides a service to the layer above it
  • communicates with a corresponding receiving node

Thus, in a reliable and accurate network environment, single frames should be used to enhance transmission and minimize re-transmission overhead.
