Hi,

Contention based media is legacy Ethernet, when the use of hubs was the best way in those environments first there were a lot of collisions.

Thanks

Compare and contast controlled media access and contention-based media access control?

Controlled-based media access control is based upon having a system in place for allowing one host to transmit at a time. It is also known as deterministic method since there is a process to determine which host transmits at a certain time. No collisions exist with this type of media access control. An example would be token ring where a token is passed from host to host and when it has the token it can transmit and others do not transmit at that time. Contention-based media access control is known as non-deterministic because hosts can transmit whenever they want. CSMA/CD is an example of this. Collisions do exist.


What is Contention based protocols?

A contention-based protocol (CBP) is a communications protocol for operating wireless telecommunication equipment that allows many users to use the same radio channel without pre-coordination. The "listen before talk" operating procedure in IEEE 802.11 is the most well known contention-based protocol.
