Abstract—The concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) has been actively developed in recent years. Wireless networks are the easiest and most convenient way to provide connectivity for IoT devices. A heterogeneous network in which some stations are user devices that transmit saturated traffic while others are sensors that monitor emergency situations and transmit unsaturated traffic is one of the new wireless network scenarios that appeared due to the development of IoT. The article presents a mathematical model for determining the distribution of the emergency alert delivery time in the presence of contention with user devices.
