A Two-Cyclic Queuing System

Abstract

Laslo Lakatos [1, 2] introduced a queuing system in which waiting time V of a customer increases up to a W multiple of T. This problem statement is motivated by a problem occurred in aviation: T is aircraft go-around time when the runway is not clear. In the present paper, a queuing system is considered in which V increases up to T1x + T2 y, where T1 and T2 are given numbers (go-around times of two “circles”) and x and y are V-dependent integers (numbers of rounds). An ergodic theorem for a proper embedded Markov chain is proved. An algorithm is given to compute x and y given V.
