RTS/CTS HAND SHAKING FOR HIGH EFFICIENCY COMMUNICATION

摘要

Disclosed is an RTS/CTS hand shaking method for improving the efficiency of wireless communication resources. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the RTS/CTS hand shaking method comprises the following steps of: setting a first network allocation vector (NAV) during a predetermined clear-to-send (CTS) packet transmission period when a ready-to-send (RTS) packet is received; and setting a second NAV during a predetermined data packet transmission period when a CTS packet is received. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a RTS/CTS hand shaking method capable of maximizing the use efficiency of wireless communication resources or wired communication resources by minimizing exposed nodes that are generated by RTS/CTS hand shaking.
