3 3 votes The minimum frame size requirement in a CSMA/CD-based Ethernet network is necessary to:Reduce the overall probability of collisions in the network. Ensure a station can detect a collision before it finishes transmitting the frame. Accommodate the $48$-bit MAC addresses and the frame checksum in the header. Allow for faster routing of the packet at the network layer.

That's the reason we have this formula: $L \geq (T_{\text{jam}} + 2 \times P_d) \times B$ 0 0 replyShare jacknroll commented Dec 15, 2025 reply Follow flag our condition to detect collision is Tt>=2tp or Tt>=rtt means u complete your journey to reach reciever and come back ans u still transmitting since in csma/cd u can only detect collision while transmitting data 0 0 replyShare Please log in or register to add a comment.
