Abstract

The paper considers a single-line retrial queueing system with an unreliable server. Queuing systems are called unreliable if their servers may fail from time to time and require restoration (repair), only after which they can resume servicing customers. The input of the system is a simple Poisson flow of customers. The service time and uptime of the server are distributed exponentially. An incoming customer try to get service. The server can be free, busy or under repair. The customer is serviced immediately if the server is free. If it is busy or under repair, the customer goes into orbit. And after a random time it tries to get service again. The study is carried out by the method of asymptotically diffusion analysis under the condition of a large delay of requests in orbit. In this work, the transfer coefficient and diffusion coefficient were found and a diffusion approximation

1. Introduction Queuing systems with repeated requests are quite often used in various areas of telecommunications. Modern information processing systems often encounter unstable operating conditions, such as overloads, failures, and resource limitations. Under these conditions, conventional retrial queuing (RQ) systems may not be able to process all incoming requests, resulting in lost information and poor performance [1-4]. Repetitive request systems offer a solution to this problem by providing a mechanism for processing requests that cannot be fulfilled immediately. Instead of discarding such requests, they are resubmitted to the queue after a certain time, increasing the likelihood of successful completion of service. The most complete and detailed description of RQ systems and their detailed comparison with classical queuing systems was reflected in [5-7]. There are different types of unreliability. For example, the works [8-10] consider the unreliability of the server as a breakdown. The authors in [11-14] consider an unreliable server with collisions or conflicts during simultaneous access to the server. Figure 1. Model of retrial queueing system M/M/1 with unreliable server This problem is especially relevant when it comes to unreliable servers that can fail due to software errors, hardware malfunctions or external factors. Server failures can lead to data loss, interruption of services, and decreased performance. If the server fails while servicing the request, it goes to repair. A request under maintenance goes into orbit and awaits recovery of the server. A fairly large number of works are devoted to systems with unreliable server [15-20]. To understand the behavior of systems with repeated requests and evaluate their performance, it is necessary to use analytical methods. In this paper, we consider a single-line queuing system with an unreliable server. We will conduct the study using the method of asymptotic diffusion analysis. It has been proven that the accuracy of the diffusion approximation exceeds the accuracy of the Gaussian approximation calculated in [21]. 2. System description Any data network, having generated customers, sends them to a shared resource (server). If the server is free, then the customer is served. If the server fails while servicing a customer, it is sent for repair, and the customers go into orbit. Let’s consider an RQ system with an unreliable server, the input of which receives a simple flow of customers with parameter
