English: 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.
Română: Descrierea problemei staţiei ascunse în controlul accesului la mediu în IEEE 802.11. Staţia C transmite date staţiei B. Staţia A vrea şi ea să transmită lui B şi ascultă mediul în căutarea de alte cadre. Fiind în afara ariei de acoperire a lui C, nu detectează cadrele trimise de acesta şi crede că mediul este liber. Rezultă coliziune de cadre la staţia B

That presumption wasn't correct as in the revision the circles weren't centered. This is more clear. Both A and C are in range of B, but not each other. Coloring the circles should help.
