DATA TRANSMISSION SYSTEM PERFORMANCE PREDICTION,

Abstract

Methods of gathering data and predicting reliability of electronic systems are comprehensively treated in engineering text books and periodicals. This paper examines these prediction techniques, and adapts those suitable for use in digital data transmission to that discipline. It is shown that the most useful reliability formulae are those given by the distribution, survival and hazard rate functions. Methods of estimating parameters of these functions are demonstrated as are techniques for determining confidence levels of the estimates. (Author)
