This document explores the Distributed Foundation Wireless Medium Access Control (DFWMAC) in Point Coordination Function (PCF) operation, focusing on the roles of SIFS, PIFS, and NAV in efficient bandwidth allocation among wireless stations. It examines contention-free periods, polling mechanisms, and how bandwidth is evenly distributed when PCF is effectively employed. Key concepts include PIFS and SIFS durations, coordination points, and how wireless stations manage access to shared channels, ensuring fair resource distribution and minimizing congestion.
