The transceivers utilize a Carrier Sense
Multiple Access (CSMA) protocol with
Random Backoff and a programmable
back-off seed. Therefore, in the event of a
collision, the transceiver backs off and
retries the packet. Specifically, when two
transceivers collide with each other
(transmitting packets at the same time),
each transceiver chooses a random number
of packet times that it will wait before
retrying the packet. Ideally, they will each
choose a different number and will be
successful in the next transmission. A good
rule of thumb is to set Random Backoff to
a number slightly larger than the maximum
number of transceivers that would be
expected to be transmitting at the same
time.
Settings:
1 packet time: 0x00
1-2 packet times: 0x01
