Study Notes
CSMA/CA in Wireless Communication
- CSMA/CA stands for Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance.
Distributed Inter Frame Space (DIFS) in CSMA/CA
- The purpose of DIFS is to provide a minimum waiting time for a station to sense the channel before transmitting.
Backoff Time in CSMA/CA
- If other Mobile Stations (MSs) transmit during the backoff time, the transmission will be delayed.
Transmission in CSMA/CA
- A Mobile Station (MS) can start its transmission when the channel is sensed idle for a DIFS period.
Channel Contention in CSMA/CA
- CSMA/CA allows terminals to defer transmission to avoid collisions in case of channel contention.
Channel Busy in CSMA/CA
- A Mobile Station defer to another if it senses the medium is busy to avoid collision.
p-Persistent CSMA Protocol
- The main characteristic of p-persistent CSMA protocol is that a station waits for a random time before transmitting.
- A special case of p-persistent CSMA represents 1-persistent CSMA.
- The tradeoff provided by p-persistent CSMA protocol is between throughput and delay.
Transmission in p-Persistent CSMA
- At a probability value of p, the persistent CSMA has to wait for T units before transmitting.
- If the medium is busy in p-persistent CSMA protocol, the transmission is delayed.
Throughput Efficiency in CSMA
- 1-Persistent CSMA has the highest efficiency in terms of throughput.
Multiple Access Issues
- The main issue when more than one Mobile Station (MS) transmits at the same time on the control channel to BS is collision.
- The primary issue when several Mobile Stations (MSs) share the same communication channel is multiple access.
Collision Resolution
- CSMA/CA is a protocol that resolves a collision after it occurs in a multiple access system.
Multiple Access Protocols
- Protocols that aim to solve multiple access issues in wireless communication systems are CSMA, TDMA, FDMA, and CDMA.
- MAC (Medium Access Control) protocols are designed to resolve multiple access issues in wireless communication systems.
- IEEE 802.11 is a protocol designed for Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) in wireless networks.
