ABSTRACT:
A method and approach for providing improved performance in a CSMA/CD-type network utilizing transmission of block encoded congestion sense signaling to allow full duplex transmission of data over a communication link segment. In addition, the method and apparatus for providing in-band signaling of congestion conditions is described. The improved method and apparatus are implemented with minimal changes to existing standards and allow for compatibility, above the MAC sublayer, with existing installed hardware and software bases.
