Abstract The two heterogeneous servers of the
Markovian retrial queue model with an additional server,
impatience behavior and vacation are presented in this
research paper. An arriving customer who finds accessible
servers gets immediate service. Otherwise, if both servers
are engaged, an entering customer will join in the orbit to
retry and get their service after some random time. If any
customers in the orbit discover that the waiting time is
longer than expected, they may leave without receiving the
service. We consider two servers with different service
rates to provide the service based on “First Come, First
Served”. When the number of customers in orbit increases
occasionally, we will instantly activate an additional server
to reduce the queue size. After the orbit becomes null, the
server goes for maintenance activity. The practical
application is given to justify our model. The proposed
model was obtained using the birth-death process and the
equations were governed using Chapman-Kolmogorov
equations. Finally, we have solved the equations using a
recursive approach and the performance indices are derived
to improve quality and efficiency.

1. Introduction
This paper investigates a model of two-heterogeneous
server retrial queue accompanied by additional server,
impatience and vacation, which has fascinated many
researchers. The domains of computer networks,
commerce, manufacturing and service systems heavily rely
on this queueing approach. We have all experienced
waiting in line to satisfy our demands in various situations,
known as the queuing system.
The blocking is done in real-time, for typical strategic
behavior of the service provider. During the arrival, if a
likely customer expects a long waiting time in the queue,
the customer is free to choose whether or not to join the
system to receive service. For example, the patients are
waiting in the line to get their treatment. If any of the
patients, on arriving observes a long queue, may refuse to
join in the queue and this situation is termed as Balking.
In a retrial queue, a customer entering the system seeking
service, finds all the servers being engaged and proceeds a
customer to the waiting area is known as retrial orbit. On
where the customers check the availability of the servers
until the server is free. Also, if any customer in the queue
decides to leave the orbit without receiving the service
presuming that their wait will be longer, this is referred to
as reneging. For example in telephone systems, the auto-
repeat facilities allow the client to automatically redial a
busy telephone until a connection is made.
