Abstract

The input of a multiserver loss system is assumed to be a periodic random marked point process which has, with probability one, infinitely many construction points. It is shown that, independently of the initial distribution, there exists a unique periodic process modeling the periodic steady-state behaviour of the loss system. In addition, practical sufficient conditions for the existence of enough construction points are derived.
