Reliability and Cost-Benefit Analysis of a Two-Unit Cold Standby System Used for Communication through Satellite with Assembling and Activation Time

摘要

This paper gives the reliability and cost benefit analysis of a two-unit cold standby communication system with assembling of both units at a time with activation time. In now-a-days, Communication devices are of great demand. Thus, it is essential to study the systems used for communication. Here, we deal with a two-unit cold standby communication system in which both the units are packed initially and are assembled immediately after the need arises. On need, the assembling process starts for both the units but one at a time and as soon as the units are assembled, one of them is made operative and other is kept as cold standby. On failure of the operative unit, some time (called activation time) is required to make the cold standby unit operative and the system works till its need exists or it gets failed completely. On failure, the system is got repaired and its working is resumed soon after the completion of repair. Various measures of system effectiveness have been obtained to get the optimum profit.
