Reliability index algorithm of a sub-domain interconnection large communication network

The normalized weighted capacity reliability index of a sub-domain interconnection large scale communication network is defined and a new algorithm to calculate the reliability index is proposed.The proposed algorithm can be performed using logical or algebraic operation by means of computer-aided programming and the correctness of each key step is validated in detail.This paper takes the sub-domain interconnection symmetrical topological network for a typical example to calculate the network reliability index and verifies the correctness of the proposed algorithm using the real measured statistical data,The real measured results are well in accordance with the results obtained by the proposed algorithm.The result shows that the proposed algorithm is a valid means to estimate the reliability index of a sub-domain interconnection large-scale communication network.
