- CSMA/CA has been known as a representative media access control method since the dawn of wireless communication. Even now, it is widely used in the world. For example, it is well known to be adopted by IEEE 802.11, which is one of the most popular communication standards. CSMA/CA has long been known to have a problem that sig-nificantly degrades communication performance, called the hidden-terminal problem or the exposed-terminal problem. These problems have been tackled by many researchers over the years, and there is a huge amount of research. However, a fundamental solution to these problems has not yet been proposed. For this reason, even now, the communication performance is still significantly deteriorating when many terminals gather. In this paper, we propose a control frame multiplexing technique to detect CTS frame and ACK frame with high accuracy without demodulation by monitoring the received signal strength, i.e., RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indication), even when a node is receiving signals from neighboring nodes, which would normally be busy. The proposed technique enables simultaneous data communication, which solves the problem of exposed terminals and greatly improves the communication efficiency in CSMA/CA.
