← Logic & PuzzlesIf a network protocol transmits frequent 'ACK' packets and rare 'SYN' packets, which encoding outcome optimizes transmission efficiency using Huffman coding?
A)Equal length codes are assigned
B)'SYN' packets get shorter codes
C)Error detection becomes more robust
D)'ACK' packets get shorter codes✓
💡 Explanation
Huffman coding assigns shorter codes to more frequent symbols to minimize the average code length; because 'ACK' packets occur more frequently, the Huffman coding mechanism gives them shorter codes, therefore optimizing efficiency, rather than 'SYN' packets.
