Question

What is the older channel access method that is used in WiFi wireless networks when it comes to dealing with collisions?
Group of answer choices

CSMA/CD

CSMA/CP

CSMA/CQ

CSMA/CA

Answer 1

The older channel access method used in WiFi wireless networks when dealing with collisions is **CSMA/CA** (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance).

CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection) is primarily used in wired Ethernet networks, whereas CSMA/CA is specifically designed for the challenges of wireless communication, where collision detection is not feasible.

So the correct answer is **CSMA/CA**.
