The effect of imperfect carrier sensing on nonpersistent carrier sense multiple access
Savo Glisic, Ramesh R. Rao, Larry B. Milstein · 1990
An analysis of nonpersistent CSMA (carrier sense multiple access) in radio channels with imperfect carrier sensing is presented. Numerical results show that a careful optimization of the channel state detector parameter must be performed in order to get good system performance; otherwise, the system will tend to behave like unslotted Aloha.>
