How are network data transmissions calculated?

  • goodput + traffic overhead = throughput
  • goodput + latency = bandwidth
  • throughput + goodput = bandwidth
  • throughput + latency = goodput

Explanation: Bandwidth is the capacity at which a medium can carry data. Throughput is usually lower than the bandwidth because of a number of factors like type and amount of traffic. Goodput is throughput minus traffic overhead for establishing sessions, acknowledgments, encapsulation, and retransmitted bits.
