On Discrete Age of Information of Infinite Size Status Updating System

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, for the discrete time status updating system with infinite size, we derive the explicit expression of average age of information (AoI), and the AoI's stationary distribution. Based on the discussions of difference between finite and infinite size status updating systems, we successfully characterize the random dynamics of system's AoI using a two-dimensional state vector, which simultaneously tracks the real time AoI and the age of packet currently under service. We constitute the two-dimensional age process and completely solve all the stationary probabilities. Then, as one of the marginal distributions, the stationary distribution of system's AoI is derived, and with which the mean of the AoI is also determined.
