The maximum window size for data transmission using the selective reject protocol with n-bit frame sequence numbers is:
A
2^n
B
2^(n-1)
C
2^n-1
D
2^(n-2)
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The STANAG 5066 PROFILE FOR HF RADIO DATA COMMUNICATIONS uses Selective Repeat ARQ, with a maximum window size of 128 protocol-data units (PDUs).

Detailed explanation-2: -We choose m = 2, which means the size of the window can be 2m-1, or 3. We can now show why the size of the send window must be less than 2m.
