Abstract:
A queueing model with finite buffer size, mixed input traffic (Poisson and burst Poisson arrivals), synchronous transmission and server interruptions through a Bernoulli sequence of independent random variables is studied. Using average burst length, traffic intensity and input traffic mixture ratio as parameters, the relationships among buffer size, overflow probability and expected message queueing delay are obtained. An integrated digital voice-data system with synchronous time division multiplexing (STDM) for a large number of voice sources and mixed arrival process for data messages is considered as an application for this model. The results of this study are portrayed on graphs and may be used as guidelines in buffer design problems in digital voice-data systems. The queueing model developed is quite general in a sense that it covers pure Poisson and burst Poisson arrival processes and the mixture of the two as well.
