What is use of Carrier sense multiple access

Carrier sense multiple access with collision detection (CSMA/CD) is a form of medium access control in which a station listens to the medium to try to see if another transmission is in progress. If the medium appears idle, the station transmits. If a collision happens, the workstations wait a random amount of time before trying again.
