Reliability of Systems with Various Element Configurations

Note: Sections 1, 3 and 4 of this application example require only knowledge of events and their probability. Section 2 involves the binomial and Poisson distributions. Many physical and non-physical systems (e.g. bridges, car engines, airconditioning systems, biological and ecological systems, chains of command in civilian or military organizations, quality control systems in manufacturing pla...

Evaluation of Network Reliability of Existing Transmission Networks

The evolution of communication technologies results in continuously increasing capacities and higher concentration of traffic on relatively fewer network elements. Consequently, the failures of these elements can influence an increasing number of customers and can deteriorate the quality of service provided by the operator. The paper presents a modeling approach which is based on a simple two-s...

Modeling the Reliability of Packet Group Transmission in Wireless Network

— Most previous models about wireless channel are proposed to capture long-time channel characteristics. However, when we combine group transmission with error correcting mechanisms, the steady-state probabilities are no longer accurate enough to depict the short-time loss states. In this paper, we propose a new analytical model for group transmission which can capture influences of initial cha...

Data Transmission with Reliability Indication

In most digital communication systems, the information bits to be transmitted are protected against transmission errors. Typically, in the transmitter redundancy is added in a clever way by means of an encoder. In the receiver, a corresponding decoder is able to detect or to correct transmission errors by exploiting the redundancy. This technique is called channel coding. Applications of channe...
