[ns] carrier sense

[Mayur Mansukhlal Vegad]

NAV is not a table. For a particular node its NAV is a simple variable
used to store a number which is the duration (in microseconds) for which
it freezes its backoff downcounting, it it is ON. You can know this value
by accessing the nav_ (a double type of variable of Mac802_11 class in
mac/mac-802_11.h).

Hope this helps
