We do not poll, deliberately. Polling has lots of overhead, especially as users are aggregated since all users are being polled whether they have something to "say" or not. We don't use pure scheduling or pure CSMA/CA either. We do implement various ways of concatenation (packet aggregation) and some other tricks to reduce multipoint overhead as much as possible.
