Systems and methods for Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) and collision detection using a noise model are described. In various implementations, these systems and methods may be applicable to Power Line Communications (PLC). For example, a method may include receiving a signal via a communications channel in a PLC network, determining a feature of the signal, comparing the feature of the signal with a corresponding feature of a cyclostationary noise model, and taking a predetermined action based, at least in part, upon the comparison. In some implementations, taking the predetermined action may include determining whether to backoff or to transmit a packet over the communications channel. In other implementations, taking the predetermined action may include determining whether an error is due to a packet collision or due to a low quality of the communications channel. |
