Example 1: Changing Packet Size
The bandwidth used for 256-byte packets would be
1776 + (10 * 64) = 2416 = 19328 bits/message
If the packet size is changed to 1024 bytes, only 79 percent of the bandwidth that was
previously used would be required. The bandwidth used for the 2048-byte packet size
would be
1776 + (1 * 64) = 1840 = 14720 bits/message
This would be 3 percent less than the bandwidth required for the 1024-byte packet
size.
Figure 20-6 shows a comparison of the bandwidths used for packets of 245, 1024, and
2048 bytes.
