IEEE Standards for Local Area Networks: Carrier Sense Multiple Access With Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) Access Method and Physical Layer Specifications
The carrier sense multiple access with collision detection (CSMA/CD) media access method is the means by which two or more stations share a common bus transmission medium. This is a comprehensive standard for local area networks employing CSMA/CD as the access method. This standard encompasses several media types and techniques for signal rates from 1 Mb/s to 20 Mb/s. IEEE Std 802.3-1985 provides ...
