Technical note: Traffic intensity estimation

Peter C. Kiessler and Robert Lund

Naval Research Logistics (NRL), 2009, vol. 56, issue 4, 385-387

Abstract: This note examines estimation of the traffic intensity in an M/G/1 queue. We show that the ratio of sample mean service times to the sample mean interarrival times has undesirable sampling properties. To remedy this, two alternative estimators are introduced. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Naval Research Logistics 2009
