Abstract

Explicit formulas for the time congestion and the call blocking probability are derived in a single server loss system whose total input consists of a finite superposition of independent general stationary traffic streams with exponentially distributed service times. The results are used for studying to what extent two arrival processes with coinciding customer-stationary state distributions are similar or even identical, and whether an arrival process with coinciding customer-stationary and time-stationary state distributions is of the Poisson type.
