Suppose three active nodes (n1, n2, and n3) are competing for access to a channel using slotted ALOHA. The channel is capable of transmitting a given frame at the full channel rate of R Mbps (R = 27Mbps). Assume each node has an infinite number of packets to send; assume node 3 attempts to transmit in each slot with a probability p = 0.2, and nodes 1 and 2 attempt with a probability p. The value of p that maximizes the throughput is: a. 0.666 O b. 0.333 C. 0.428 d. 0.2
