Approximate Method for Estimating Characteristics of Joint Service of Real-Time Traffic and Elastic Data Traffic in Multiservice Access Nodes

A mathematical model of joint servicing of priority real-time traffic and elastic data traffic in multiservice access nodes has been constructed and studied. Definitions of quality indicators for joint servicing of incoming requests for information services are provided. A system of statistical equilibrium equations is formed and its use for calculating the exact values of the introduced characteristics is considered. A method for approximate calculation of characteristics is proposed, based on the construction of a system of simplified equilibrium equations. It has been established that the obtained estimates of customer service indicators are asymptotically accurate in the region of large and small losses. The use of the developed method is shown to solve the problem of estimating the volume of traffic offloaded in an overload situation to other access nodes or to other frequency ranges in order to achieve values of specified QoS indicators and to solve the problem of planning the volume of required transmission resource of a multiservice access node.
