CSMA/CD Protocol
CSMA/CD Protocol
- Carrier Sense before transmission
- Carrier Sense while transmission
- Collision: Two or more stations transmitting simultaneously
- Backoff: Random delay after collision
- Deference: Defers transmission if channel is sensed busy
- Collision Window (Slot time): Round-trip propagation delay time plus some carrier sense time. In IEEE 802.3, this value is defined to be 51.2 us.
