Produktbeschreibung
Evolving network topologies and complex operational models require a new, more sophisticated approach to reliability and availability prediction in telecommunications systems. Bringing the field of telecommunications system reliability analysis up to date, this textbook provides telecommunications engineers, managers, and students with practical knowledge for analyzing, predicting and reporting reliability and availability metrics. Fundamental theory forms the basis for in-depth studies of fiber optic, microwave, satellite, and mobile wireless networks as well as facility design, power systems (including battery backup) and software/firmware. Analysis techniques presented include reliability block diagrams, Markov chains and Monte Carlo simulation. Problem sets are included at the end of each chapter to help solidify the readers understanding of the material presented.
Practical tools for analyzing, calculating, and reporting availability, reliability, and maintainability metrics

Engineers in the telecommunications industry must be able to quantify system reliability and availability metrics for use in service level agreements, system design decisions, and daily operations. Increasing system complexity and software dependence require new, more sophisticated tools for system modeling and metric calculation than those available in the current literature.

Telecommunications System Reliability Engineering, Theory, and Practice provides a background in reliability engineering theory as well as detailed sections discussing applications to fiber optic networks (earth station and space segment), microwave networks (long-haul, cellular backhaul and mobile wireless), satellite networks (teleport and VSAT), power systems (generators, commercial power and battery systems), facilities management, and software/firmware. Programming techniques and examples for simulation of the approaches presented are discussed throughout the book.

This powerful resource:
Acts as a comprehensive reference and textbook for analysis and design of highly reliable and available telecommunications systems
Bridges the fields of system reliability theory, telecommunications system engineering, and computer programming
Translates abstract reliability theory concepts into practical tools and techniques for technical managers, engineers and students
Provides telecommunication engineers with a holistic understanding of system reliability theory, telecommunications system engineering, and reliability/risk analysis Telecommunications System Reliability Engineering, Theory, and Practice is a must-have guide for telecommunications engineers or engineering students planning to work in the field of telecommunications

Telecommunications System Reliability Engineering, Theory, and Practice is a must-have guide for telecommunications engineers or engineering students planning to work in the field of telecommunications.

Rezensionen
"For that reason, this book will be very useful for undergraduate students and practitioners who need a good introduction to, or a refresher on, the reliability aspects of the networks they work with." (Computing Reviews, 14 January 2013)

"This well-organized book compares and contrasts the reliabilities of corresponding components that make up today's major networks as well as the reliability of facilities used to operate them." (Optics & Photonics News, 1 November 2013)
