Abstract
This paper is concerned with a discrete-time Geo/G/1 retrial queue with preferred, impatient customers and general retrial times. We analyze the Markov chain underlying the considered queueing system and derive its ergodicity condition. The system state distribution as well as the orbit size and the system size distributions are obtained in terms of their generating functions. These generating functions yield exact expressions for different performance measures. Besides, the stochastic decomposition property and the corresponding continuous-time queueing system are investigated. Finally, some numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effect of priority and impatience on several performance characteristics of the system.
