Abstract
This paper aims to compute the efficiency of a complex communication system (double-bridge). In this model, which applies the Path Tracing Method for evaluating the reliability function of the complex communication system, the process of analyzing the system’s reliability has been used to lower the failure rate of the complex system in order to optimize its competence. The illustrative system is subdivided into nine minimal paths that are arranged in series-parallel combinations. Using the Path Tracing Method, the system’s reliability, minimal signature, tail signature, signature, Barlow–Proschan index, expected time, expected cost, and sensitivity were determined. The results assist in the creation of a probabilistic approach to analyze and probabilistic method to evaluate the system signature and reliability in a way that is highly useful.
