Method for enhancing frame utilization in a CSMA/CD communication

In a CSMA/CD communication protocol, data to be sent from one device on a communication network to another is put into frames, or predetermined sized pieces of information. One of the fields in a frame, the pad field is used to make the total size of the frame large enough to ensure that a collision...

Zusammenfassung:	In a CSMA/CD communication protocol, data to be sent from one device on a communication network to another is put into frames, or predetermined sized pieces of information. One of the fields in a frame, the pad field is used to make the total size of the frame large enough to ensure that a collision anywhere in the network with another frame is detected by the senders. The pad field is further used to identify when a data record will be continued in the next frame, and also to identify when multiple data records are being sent in the same frame.
