CSMA / CD details<br />

�� After a station detects a collision, it aborts its<br />

transmission, waits a random period of time, and then<br />

tries again, assuming that no other station has started<br />

transmitting in the meantime. The CSMA/CD model<br />

will consist of alternating contention and<br />

transmission periods, with idle periods occurring<br />

when all stations are quiet.<br />

�� Suppose that two stations both begin transmitting at<br />

exactly time t0. . The minimum time to detect the<br />

collision is then just the time it takes the signal to<br />

propagate from one station to the other.<br />
