Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) is a network protocol used to efficiently share a transmission medium among multiple nodes. It helps devices avoid collisions on the network by checking if the channel is busy before transmitting data, reducing the likelihood of data packets interfering with each other.

How CSMA work?

Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) is a network protocol used to manage access to a shared communication medium. It operates by having devices first listen to the channel to determine if it is free (carrier sensing) before attempting to transmit data. If the channel is busy, the device will wait until it becomes free; if it’s clear, the device sends its data. To prevent collisions, CSMA may use techniques like CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection) or CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance).


What is the difference between csma CD and csma ca - 42k?

*** In CSMA/CD it detects that a collision take place and resend the frame that was send. On a wirless network losing bandwidth along with time to detect that a collision took place was not acceptable , so CSMA/CA was utilized. ** CSMA/CD can achieve above 70% efficiency under heavy loads compared to CSMA/CA that can only achieve up to 30% efficiency under heavy loads. CSMA/CA network: A network in which the medium access control protocol requires carrier sense and where a station always starts transmission by sending a jam signal; if there is no collision with jam signals from other stations, it begins sending data; otherwise, it stops transmission and then tries again later. CSMA/CD network: A bus network in which the medium access control protocol requires carrier sense and in which exception conditions caused by collision are resolved by retransmission
