A Review on Reliability Modeling, Performance and Cost-benefit Analysis of Optical Fiber Network in DCRUST

Abstract

Abstract

This paper includes the survey of optical fiber network layer in the Deenbandhu Chhotu Ram University of Science and Technology (DCRUST) and its reliability modeling aspects to evaluate reliability of that optical fiber network. To find out reliability is important part of a system is important to know its period of working, failure rates and cost benefit analysis. Optical fiber which are buried are significantly more vulnerable to human related damage than aerial cables. Protection path is necessary in optical fiber to reduce the wastage of time and to continue the data transmission even after the failure of working path. Each working path will have its own cold standby. If a working path fails, signal is transmitted and received from its own protection path and failed unit is send to a repairman or repairman is called upon to repair failed unit. If a working path and its protection path both get failed then the whole system will be failed. In this paper, we also study various measures of system effectiveness and take a brief view of optical communication process.

Keywords: Reliability, optical fiber, availability, protection scheme, Markov Model Process, mean time-to-system failure (MTSF)
