Q83.

What is the meaning of Carrier Sense in CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access)?

The abilitiy to check the shared transmission medium whether it is being used by any other node or not

The ability to restrict other nodes to access the shared medium

The ability to gain access to the shared medium

None of the above

Discuss

Answer: (a).The abilitiy to check the shared transmission medium whether it is being used by any other node or not

Q84.

What are the advantages of Carrier Sensing?

Sensing a carrier can avoid simultaneous transmissions by other nodes

It will help in reducing retransmission of data frames due to collisions with other station data frames

It improves performance of the network as the individual nodes sense for a carrier present in the transmission medium before requesting access to it.

All of the above

Discuss

Answer: (d).All of the above

Q85.

The station retransmits the all frames after a delay

The station aborts the whole transmission of data

Discuss

Answer: (b).The station retransmits the lost frames after a delay
