Abstract

This paper discusses reliability statistics analysis of components using masked series-system life data from random censoring test with incomplete information. The maximum likelihood estimators of the unknown parameters included in life time distributions of the individual components and the reliability of components are obtained. Moreover, a numerical simulation example is given. It is shown that the relationship of the given sample size, censoring pattern, masking level, and failure signaling probability and this method can be used to deal with practical problems.
