摘要/Abstract

Abstract:

The dynamic wireless communication network is a complex network that needs to consider various influence factors including communication devices, radio propagation, network topology, and dynamic behaviors. Existing works focus on suggesting simplified reliability analysis methods for these dynamic networks. As one of the most popular modeling methodologies, the dynamic Bayesian network (DBN) is proposed. However, it is insufficient for the wireless communication network which contains temporal and non-temporal events. To this end, we present a modeling methodology for a generalized continuous time Bayesian network (CTBN) with a 2-state conditional probability table (CPT). Moreover, a comprehensive reliability analysis method for communication devices and radio propagation is suggested. The proposed methodology is verified by a reliability analysis of a real wireless communication network.

Key words: dynamic Bayesian network (DBN), wireless communication network, continuous time Bayesian network (CTBN), network reliability
