Abstract

We consider a two-link system with restricted accessibility that accommodates Poisson arriving calls from different service-classes and propose a multirate teletraffic loss model for its analysis. In a restricted accessibility system, a new call may be blocked even if available bandwidth units do exist at the time of its arrival. In the two-link system, each particular link has two thresholds which refer to the number of in-service calls in the link. The lowest threshold, named support threshold, defines up to which point the link can support calls offloaded from the other link. The highest threshold, named offloading threshold, defines the point where the link starts offloading calls to the other link. The two-link system with restricted accessibility is modelled as a loss model whose steady state probabilities do not have a product form solution. However, we propose approximate formulas for the calculation of call blocking probabilities. The accuracy of the formulas is verified through simulation and found to be quite satisfactory.
