CSMA is the abbreviation of Carrier Sense Multiple Access. it is a networking protocol that listens to network signals on the carrier/medium before transmitting data on the media. CSMA implemented in Ethernet networks with more than one computer or network device attached to it. CSMA is part of the Media Access Control (MAC) protocol. The protocol decreases the chances of collisions when two or more stations start sending their signals over the data-link layer. It requires that each station first check the state of the medium before sending.
Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection (CSMA/CD)
Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection (CSMA/CD); is the most widely used transmission method in half-duplex Ethernet networks. On Ethernet, any device can attempt to send a frame at any time. Each device senses whether the line is idle and available for use. If it is, the device begins to send its first frame. If another device has tried to send at the same time, a collision occurs and the frames then discarded. Then each device waits a random amount of time and retires until successful in getting its transmission again.
Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance
CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance) is a method for carrier transmission in 802.11 networks. If a collision has occurred in the wired network then the energy of received signal almost doubles and the station can sense the possibility of collision. In the case of wireless networks, most of the energy; is used for transmission and the energy of received signal increases by only 5-10% if a collision occurs. It can’t be used by the station to sense collision.
Therefore CSMA/CA has specially designed for wireless networks. It uses a method similar to CSMA/CD to detect if the media is clear. CMSA/CA also uses additional techniques. This method does not detect collisions but attempts to prevent collisions before happen. Each device that transmits includes the time duration that it needs for the transmission. All other wireless devices receive this information and know how long the medium will be unavailable.
In CSMA/CA, when a node receives traffic for sending, it checks to sure that the channel is clear (no other node is transmitting at the time). The packet is sent when the channel is clear. If the channel is not clear, the node waits for a randomly chosen period of time and then checks again to see if the channel is clear. This period of time called the back off factor and counted down by a backoff counter.
If the channel is clear when the backoff counter reaches zero, the node transmits the packet. If the channel not clear and the backoff counter reaches zero, the backoff factor reset again, and the process repeated. Carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) is, the least popular of the access methods. The WLANs now uses this access method.
ASIC
An ASIC (application-explicit incorporated circuit) is a microchip intended for a unique application, for example, a specific sort of transmission convention or a hand-held PC. You may balance it with general incorporated circuits, for example, the microchip and the arbitrary access memory contributes your PC. ASICs are utilized in a wide-scope of uses, including auto outflow control, ecological checking, and individual computerized associates (PDAs).
An ASIC can be pre-produced for an uncommon application or it tends to be uniquely made (normally utilizing segments from a "building square" library of segments) for a specific client application.
Point and Question
ASIC is installed for CSMA in switches, hubs and Wireless devices. Hub and Switch both uses ASIC and both has the collision domains then why switch is too costly and Hub is too cheaper. Why we cannot use hub instead of switch.
