Method for generating a correlated sequence of variates with desired marginal distribution for testing a model of a communications system

摘要

To provide a time series having correlated interarrival times for use in traffic and queueing studies, an independent identically distributed random number stream is first transformed to a sequence of correlated uniform variates by a special modulo-1 autoregressive operation and then further transformed into a sequence of correlated variates with a prescribed marginal distribution from which there is developed the desired time studies.
