Abstract

In this article, we conducted a theoretical analysis of the packet loss in the Manhattan Street Network (MSN). The concepts of network capacity and capacity rate are introduced. In order to prevent the nodes from losing untransmitted packets, we also proposed the use of queues in the MSN. In addition, we introduced a statistical model to the MSN with buffering. Based on our model, we derived expressions for some performance statistics which explicitly show the performance of the MSN. To validate our approach, we compared the results from solving the model to those obtained from simulations. The results of the packet loss analysis suggests that the MSN operates below the network capacity to achieve the best performance
