Abstract

Provided is a data communication method performed at a transmission node, the method including collecting a node list including nodes communicable with the transmission node, exchanging the node list with each of the communicable nodes, determining an allowance of a space recycling transmission to a reception node by determining that the transmission node is a corresponding node as an exposed node in response to an occurrence of a clear-to-send (CTS) timeout, and transmitting data to the reception node based on a result of determining the allowance of the space recycling transmission.
