Abstract

In communication network, the network blocking probability can be efficiently calculated by applying a Gaussian approximation to a fixed point algorithm. Gaussian curves are approximated to represent state probability distributions of the network links. By efficiently calculating the network blocking probability, the network can be optimally designed by lowering the network blocking probability below a threshold at the least cost.
