Abstract(in English) In order to avoid data frame collisions due to the hidden terminals, the wireless LANs practically use a method under which short control frames called RTS/CTS are exchanged prior to the data frame transmission. Under that method, since short control frames may collide, the invalid time due to a collision will be shortened even if a collision occurs. However, since the transmission time of the RTS is much longer than the slot time, the waiting time of a hidden terminal may expire during the RTS transmission. That causes frequent occurrence of collisions especially under a situation where there are many hidden terminals. In this research, in order to solve that problem, we propose a method which reduces the collisions by modifying the timing of sending out RTS frames, and show its effectiveness.
