Abstract

We solve for the asymptotic periodic distribution of the continuous time quasi-birth-and-death process with time-varying periodic rates in terms of R^ and G^ matrix functions which are analogues of the R and G matrices of matrix analytic methods. We evaluate these QBDs numerically by solving for R^ numerically.
