Abstract

A buffered non-persistent CSMA/CD-type LAN that was proposed by Boyanov and Ruskov is a Markovian LAN model. The characteristics of the network were obtained analytically by Lee and Pee. In this paper, the authors study the model further by deriving the distribution of the time of the first successful transmission for the model.
