Abstract :
Very few techniques exist for reliability evaluation of communication systems where links as well as nodes have certain probability of failure. This correspondence describes a technique by which the reliability expression for such a system can be conveniently derived. It is also shown that using the concept of this correspondence, it is possible to extend all the existing reliability-evaluation algorithms to communication systems with little effort.
