Abstract :
In this paper, we show the hidden terminal problem of Korea Standard protocol in the PLC access network. PLC access network has serious hidden terminal problem at the master nodes because of its topology characteristic. We propose simple strategies to improve performance. The proposed strategies can make network operate in acceptable throughput range when original KS provides near-zero throughput.
