An apparatus and method for controlling transmission rate by determining whether a data transmission failure is caused by a channel error or a data collision in order to reduce a collision-caused rate decrease or a collision-caused rate increase delay in a WLAN. A collision-caused data transmission failure and if the number of data transmission failures reaches a predetermined threshold, data is retransmitted by means of an RTS/CTS exchange.
