Hidden Node Problem

Depiction of the hidden station problem for media access control in IEEE 802.11. Station C is sending data to station B. Station A wants to do the same and listens for other frames being sent. Since it is out of the range of station C, it does not notice its frames and thinks the media is free. The result is a frame collision at station B.
