Capture Sensing Simultaneous AccessExploiting the Capture Effect for Greater Spatial Reuse and Higher Bandwidth
What happens when 2 packets collide? What information can we collect during a collision? How good (bad) is CSMA? PACKET A PACKET A PREAMBLE PREAMBLE PREAMBLE PREAMBLE PAYLOAD PAYLOAD PAYLOAD PAYLOAD PACKET B PACKET B A B Capture Effect CSMA At R1: Nothing! At R2: A R1 T1 R1 T2 C R2
Build a table of stronger-weaker neighbors Propagate tables? Packet format Eliminating hidden-terminal ? A C Capture Sensing Simultaneous Access • According to my table: • T2 < T1 -> OK to send • T3 > T1 -> NOT OK to send R1 T1 T2 T3 R2
