Modelling Finite Buffer Slotted Ring Network Using Matrix Geometric Method

Various analytical methods are proposed and used to evaluate the performance of a given slotted ring network. In this paper a station buffer of a slotted ring is analyzed using discrete time queueing technique with an assumption that the time is divided into small segments known as slots. We analyzed and propose the matrix geometric method (MGM) as the solution technique for the model under discussion. Our model has finite station buffer and its behaviour is evaluated through MGM technique by utilizing the characteristics of two-dimensional Markov chain. Various performance measures are validated with their corresponding results such as, throughput, delay and probability of packet rejection.
