Abstract :
Fuzzy random variable is a measure function from a probability space to a collection of fuzzy variables. Based on the fuzzy random theory, this paper addresses some properties of fuzzy random renewal processes generated by a sequence of independent and identically distributed (iid) fuzzy random interarrival times. The relationship between the expected value of the fuzzy random renewal variable and the distribution functions of the alpha-pessimistic values and alpha-optimistic values of the interarrival times is discussed. Furthermore, the fuzzy random style of renewal equation is provided. Finally, fuzzy random Blackwell´s renewal theorem and Smith´s key renewal theorem are also given
