            Abstract : 
Based on a realistic interference model and an effective framework for determining the optimum carrier sensing range. This paper investigates the changing rules of the optimum carrier sensing range of several types of wireless networks. Simulations are also performed using ns-2, and the results validate the effectiveness of the framework.
