Carrier sensing is a fundamental mechanism in Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) protocols and it has been used as an effective way to reduce collisions and exploit spatial reuse in wireless networks. The size of the carrier investigates the effect of sensing range on the throughput of fundamental issues in Medium Access Control (MAC), i.e., collisions a probability, transmission range and Exponential Increase Exponential Decrease (EIED) back chain models were used

This means that the larger the sensing range, the smaller the possibility that a new transmission attempt to interferes with some ongoing transmissions. Furthermore, smaller sensing range with a larger transmission range means more nodes have to defer their transmissions when one node is transmitting, which leads to lower spatial reuse and consequently decreases throughput. Similarly, smaller sensing range means more transmission hops which leads to more collisions. In the other hand, throughput decreases with increase in transmission range, number of nodes and back off time.
