Q3. Derive the Erlangs second distribution equation in case of switching systems,
for a finite queue capacity.
Q4 (a). During the busy hour, 1200 calls were offered to a group of trunks and six
calls were lost. The average call duration was 3 minutes. Find (i) the traffic
offered (ii) the traffic carried (iii) the traffic lost (iv) the grade of service (v) the
total duration of percentage of congestion.
(b). A group of 20 trunks provides a grade of service of 0.01 when offered 12E as
traffic. (i)How much is the grade of service improved if one extra trunk is added
to the group? (ii) How much does the grade of service deteriorate if one trunk is
out of service?
