چکیده

Abstract A Monte Carlo simulation is reported for analog integrated circuits and is based on the modification of the failure rate of each component due to interaction effects of the failed components. The Monte Carlo technique is the methodology used to treat such circuits, since they are independent of the number of components and the degree of system complexity. The reliability model is applicable over a wide temperature and bias range and may be used to predict reliability of microwave systems. The model is compared to accelerated test results of two analog microwave circuits. Excellent agreement has been obtained for a low noise amplifier as well as for a transimpedence amplifier.

MOCA ARM: Analog Reliability Measurement based on Monte Carlo Analysis

Due to the expected increase of defects in circuits based on deep submicron technologies, reliability has become an important design criterion. Although different approaches have been developed to estimate reliability in digital circuits and some measuring concepts have been separately presented to reveal the quality of analog circuit reliability in the literature, there is a gap to estimate re...

Loss of Load Expectation Assessment in Deregulated Power Systems Using Monte Carlo Simulation and Intelligent Systems

Deregulation policy has caused some changes in the concepts of power systems reliability assessment and enhancement. In this paper, generation reliability is considered, and a method for its assessment using intelligent systems is proposed. Also, because of power market and generators’ forced outages stochastic behavior, Monte Carlo Simulation is used for reliability evaluation. Generation r...

Estimating Reliability in Mobile ad-hoc Networks Based on Monte Carlo Simulation (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Each system has its own definition of reliability. Reliability in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET) could be interpreted as, the probability of reaching a message from a source node to destination, successfully. The variability and volatility of the MANET configuration makes typical reliability methods (e.g. reliability block diagram) inappropriate. It is because, no single structure or configurat...

Monte Carlo Simulation to Compare Markovian and Neural Network Models for Reliability Assessment in Multiple AGV Manufacturing System

We compare two approaches for a Markovian model in flexible manufacturing systems (FMSs) using Monte Carlo simulation. The model which is a development of Fazlollahtabar and Saidi-Mehrabad (2013), considers two features of automated flexible manufacturing systems equipped with automated guided vehicle (AGV) namely, the reliability of machines and the reliability of AGVs in a multiple AGV jobsho...

Network reliability importance measures : combinatorics and Monte Carlo based computations

In this paper we focus on computational aspects of network reliability importance measure evaluation. It is a well known fact that most network reliability problems are NP-hard and therefore there is a significant gap between theoretical analysis and the ability to compute different reliability parameters for large or even moderate networks. In this paper we present two very efficient combinato...
