Approximate Analysis of an M/M/1 Markovian Queue Using Unit Step Function

Abstract

This study analyzes a single server queueing model with a time-dependent arrival rate and service rate is constant. In this model, the incoming arrivals are Poisson stream; service time is exponentially distributed and the first-come first-served queueing discipline. We obtain an explicit expression for the state probability distribution with time-dependent arrival rate using unit step function.
