Describe the advantages and disadvantages of 1-persistent CSMA and p-persistent CSMA respectively

What will be an ideal response?


Advantages of 1-persistent CSMA:
It will have good channel utilization when traffic is light because it will transmit
immediately when the medium becomes idle.
Disadvantages of 1-persistent CSMA:
It will bring more collisions, especially when the traffic is heavy.
Advantages of p-persistent CSMA:
It provides a balance between 1-persistent and non-persistent schemes. It can
reduce the collisions by transmitting with the probability p instead of 1 when the
medium becomes idle. It is very useful when traffic is heavy.
Disadvantages of p-persistent CSMA:
It may waste the channel by waiting unnecessarily, especially when the traffic is
light.
