Abstract

A mathematical model of access method “carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance” for two active stations was proposed. The effect of carrier capture and unimodal dependence of the operating characteristics from the initial width of the contention window was detected. Measures of preventing the effect of carrier capture, based on the modifications of the standard protocol were proposed.
