Teletraffic Model for Indoor Wireless Communication Network

Airports are now amongst the most complex built environments known. Millions of people are using airports every year. However, providing adequate and reliable communication facilities to passengers and to other airport services represents a challenging issue. The Intelligent Airport (TINA) project aims to develop a new seamless wireless/wired ubiquitous infrastructure able to provide seamless integration at the service, network and physical layers. In this paper, we model the traffic and analyze the performance of the airport network through considering queuing networks. Spatial and temporal traffic variations were considered in a numerical example to show the performance of the model in terms of blocking probability. The model helps the network engineer and network operator to determine the location of cells with high traffic load and the time when the network becomes congested as well as the amount of network resources such as channels required to maintain balanced operation.
