  2. IEEE 802.11 RTS/CTS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11_RTS/CTS

    The RTS/CTS packet size threshold is 0–2347 octets. Typically, sending RTS/CTS frames does not occur unless the packet size exceeds this threshold. If the packet size that the node wants to transmit is larger than the threshold, the RTS/CTS handshake gets triggered. Otherwise, the data frame gets sent immediately.

  3. Universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_asynchronous...

    The universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter (UART) takes bytes of data and transmits the individual bits in a sequential fashion. [7] At the destination, a second UART re-assembles the bits into complete bytes. Each UART contains a shift register, which is the fundamental method of conversion between serial and parallel forms. Serial ...

  4. Carrier-sense multiple access with collision avoidance

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-sense_multiple...

    Devices utilizing 802.11 based standards can enjoy the benefits of collision avoidance (RTS / CTS handshake, also Point coordination function), although they do not do so by default. By default they use a Carrier sensing mechanism called exponential backoff (or Distributed coordination function ), that relies upon a station attempting to ...

  5. Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance for Wireless

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_Access_with...

    Furthermore, it is the foundation of many other MAC protocols used in wireless sensor networks (WSN). [2] The IEEE 802.11 RTS/CTS mechanism is adopted from this protocol. [3] [4] It uses RTS-CTS-DS-DATA-ACK frame sequence for transferring data, sometimes preceded by an RTS-RRTS frame sequence, in view to provide solution to the hidden node ...

  6. Software flow control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_flow_control

    Hardware flow control, on the other hand, is typically under the direct control of the transmitting UART, which is able to cease transmission immediately, without the intervention of higher levels. To handle the latency caused by builtin FIFOs, more advanced UARTs, like the 16950, provide "on-chip" software flow control. [1]

  7. RTS/CTS - Wikipedia

    RTS/CTS (request to send/ clear to send) may refer to: Request to send and clear to send, flow control signals RS-232 RTS/CTS, today's [as of?] usual RS-232 hardware ...

  8. Exposed node problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exposed_node_problem

    [1] IEEE 802.11 RTS/CTS mechanism helps to solve this problem only if the nodes are synchronized and packet sizes and data rates are the same for both the transmitting nodes. When a node hears an RTS from a neighboring node, but not the corresponding CTS, that node can deduce that it is an exposed node and is permitted to transmit to other ...

  9. Universal synchronous and asynchronous receiver-transmitter

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_synchronous_and...

    A universal synchronous and asynchronous receiver-transmitter (USART, programmable communications interface or PCI) [1] is a type of a serial interface device that can be programmed to communicate asynchronously or synchronously. See universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter (UART) for a discussion of the asynchronous capabilities of these ...
