Abstract

Delayed renewal process is a special type of renewal process in which the first interarrival time is quite different from the others. This paper first proposes an uncertain delayed renewal process whose interarrival times are regarded as uncertain variables. Then it gives an uncertainty distribution of delayed renewal process and an elementary delayed renewal theorem.
