Abstract:In this paper, we develop performance models of the Broadcast and Unknown Server (BUS) in the LANE. The traffic on the BUS is divided into two classes: the broadcast and multicast traffic, and the unicast relay flow. The broadcast and multicast traffic is assumed to form a Markov Modulated Poisson Process (MMPP). The traffic for a particular unicast relay flow is an MMPP as well. However, the number of active unicast relay flows sojourning on the BUS is determined by a tandem queueing system, where the flow ar… Show more
