  2. Medium access control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium_access_control

    The channel access control mechanisms provided by the MAC layer are also known as a multiple access method. This makes it possible for several stations connected to the same physical medium to share it. Examples of shared physical media are bus networks, ring networks, hub networks, wireless networks and half-duplex point-to-point

  3. Contention (telecommunications) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contention...

    In carrier detection, computers continue to listen to the network as they transmit. If computer detects another signal that interferes with the signal it is sending, it stops transmitting. Both computers then wait for a random amount of time and attempt to transmit. Contention methods are most popular media access control method on LANs. [1]

  4. Carrier-sense multiple access with collision detection

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

    Carrier-sense multiple access with collision detection (CSMA/CD) is a medium access control (MAC) method used most notably in early Ethernet technology for local area networking. It uses carrier -sensing to defer transmissions until no other stations are transmitting.

  5. Channel access method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_access_method

    A channel access method may also be a part of the multiple access protocol and control mechanism, also known as medium access control (MAC). Medium access control deals with issues such as addressing, assigning multiplex channels to different users and avoiding collisions. Media access control is a sub-layer in the data link layer of the OSI ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.3

    IEEE 802.3 is a working group and a collection of standards defining the physical layer and data link layer's media access control (MAC) of wired Ethernet.The standards are produced by the working group of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).

  7. Carrier-sense multiple access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-sense_multiple_access

    Carrier-sense multiple access (CSMA) is a medium access control (MAC) protocol in which a node verifies the absence of other traffic before transmitting on a shared transmission medium, such as an electrical bus or a band of the electromagnetic spectrum.

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

    Multiple access with collision avoidance (MACA) is a slotted media access control protocol used in wireless LAN data transmission to avoid collisions caused by the hidden station problem and to simplify exposed station problem.
