| Question 64 |
For the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol for wireless communication, which of the following statements is/are TRUE?
I. At least three non-overlapping channels are available for transmissions.
II. The RTS-CTS mechanism is used for collision detection.
III. Unicast frames are ACKed.
I. At least three non-overlapping channels are available for transmissions.
II. The RTS-CTS mechanism is used for collision detection.
III. Unicast frames are ACKed.
| All I, II and III | |
| I and III only | |
| II and III only | |
| II only |
Question 64 Explanation:
802.11 MAC = Wifi
I. This is true, maximum 3 overlapping channels are possible in Wifi.
II. The RTS (Request To Send) and CTS(Clear To Send) are control frames which is used for collision avoidance, not in collision detection, (so, II is False)
III. Every frame in Wifi is Acked, because Wifi stations do not use collusion detection. (True)
I. This is true, maximum 3 overlapping channels are possible in Wifi.
II. The RTS (Request To Send) and CTS(Clear To Send) are control frames which is used for collision avoidance, not in collision detection, (so, II is False)
III. Every frame in Wifi is Acked, because Wifi stations do not use collusion detection. (True)
