Telecommunications System Reliability Engineering, Theory, And Practice

Telecommunications System Reliability Engineering, Theory, and Practice

Practical tools for analyzing, calculating, and reportingavailability, reliability, and maintainability metrics

Engineers in the telecommunications industry must be able toquantify system reliability and availability metrics for use inservice level agreements, system design decisions, and dailyoperations. Increasing system complexity and software dependencerequire new, more sophisticated tools for system modeling andmetric calculation than those available in the currentliterature.

Telecommunications System Reliability Engineering, Theory,and Practice provides a background in reliability engineeringtheory as well as detailed sections discussing applications tofiber optic networks (earth station and space segment), microwavenetworks (long-haul, cellular backhaul and mobile wireless),satellite networks (teleport and VSAT), power systems (generators,commercial power and battery systems), facilities management, andsoftware/firmware. Programming techniques and examples forsimulation of the approaches presented are discussed throughout thebook.

This powerful resource:

• Acts as a comprehensive reference and textbook for analysis anddesign of highly reliable and available telecommunicationssystems
• Bridges the fields of system reliability theory,telecommunications system engineering, and computerprogramming
• Translates abstract reliability theory concepts into practicaltools and techniques for technical managers, engineers andstudents
• Provides telecommunication engineers with a holisticunderstanding of system reliability theory, telecommunicationssystem engineering, and reliability/risk analysisTelecommunications System Reliability Engineering, Theory, andPractice is a must-have guide for telecommunications engineers orengineering students planning to work in the field oftelecommunications
