Analysis for an inquiry processing system using communication satellite
Abstract
An inquiry processing system using communication satellite is considered. Each terminal transmits an inquiry via satellite to the terminal which has data file concerning it. The terminal having received an inquiry prepares and transmits the answer for it back to the original terminal. Characteristic quantities such as mean response time and maximum throughput are obtained analytically. Through the numerical results, the system is found to be of good performance.
