Carrier-Sense Multiple-Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA)

Return to glossary

Used to improve the performance of CSMA by attempting to be less "greedy" on the channel. If the channel is sensed busy before transmission then the transmission is deferred for a "random" interval. This reduces the probability of collisions on the channel.
