Discrete-time queueing systems are frequently encountered in telecommunication networks. These systems usually involve finite buffers. The purpose of this paper is to present a generally applicable method to compute the loss probability in discrete-time finite-buffer queues by using only the state probabilities in the corresponding infinite-buffer queue.
