Local Area Network Protocols
Two heavily used medium access control protocols are described here to illustrate the use of principles explained previously, namely the CSMA/CD protocol (used in ethernet networks) and the CSMA/CA protocol (employed in IEEE 802.11 networks). The evolveme

Preface
The author of this book has been teaching the closely interrelated subjects of communication protocols and communication networks for many years both at the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia, and at several high engineering schools in France. Communication protocols have also been the main topic of the author's research activities for many years. This book arises from these teaching and research experiences. Although the areas of communication networks and communication protocols strongly depend on each other, I tried to avoid the treatment of communication networks as much as possible in this book. A reader shall therefore have to rely on the extensive literature on the topics of communication networks which is available elsewhere. It took a long, a too long time to write this book, especially because I retired while working on it. However, due to the fact that the emphasis of this work is on the principles on which communication protocols are based, rather than on the description of specific protocols, the author hopes that the book will be useful for both the students of communications and the engineers who are already working in industry, but still want to deepen and broaden their knowledge of this intere
