Abstract

Consider a single server queueing model which is observed over a continuous time interval (0,T], where T is determined by a suitable stopping rule. Let θ be the unknown parameter for the arrival process and hat {theta }_{T} be the maximum likelihood estimator of θ. The main goal of this paper is to obtain a moderate deviation result of the maximum likelihood estimator for the single server queueing model under certain regular conditions.

Summary

Introduction

Statistical analysis on queueing theory has come a long way in the past sixty years. A key component for the estimation of queueing parameter is maximum likelihood estimation. The first theoretical treatment of the estimation problem was given by Clarke (1957), who derived maximum likelihood estimates of arrival and service rates in an M/M/1 queueing system. Acharya and Singh (2019) studied the asymptotic properties of the maximum likelihood estimator from single server queues using the martingale technique. Singh and Acharya (2019) discussed the bound for the equivalence of the Bayes and maximum likelihood estimator and obtained the bound on the difference between the Bayes estimator from their true values of arrival and service rate parameter in an M/M/1 queue. Our main aim in this paper is to study the problem of moderate deviations for the maximum likelihood estimator for single server GI /G/1 queueing model.
