'''Distributed coordination function''' ('''DCF''') is the fundamental [[medium access control]] (MAC) technique of the [[IEEE 802.11]]-based [[wireless LAN|WLAN]] standard (including [[Wi-Fi]]). DCF employs a [[carrier-sense multiple access with collision avoidance]] (CSMA/CA) with [[binary exponential backoff]] algorithm.
