Reliability and cost benefit analysis of a two-unit standby communication system with assembling of one unit at a time

The reliability and cost benefit analysis of a two-unit standby communication system with assembling of one unit at a time has been carried out in the present paper. One of the units is assembled and made operative whenever need arises. The other unit is unassembled which is got assembled and made operative on failure of the former unit. The idea of having standby unit has been taken to avoid losses due to down time on failure of operative unit. Various measures of system effectiveness have been obtained by making use of regenerative point technique. Graphical study has been made to give interesting results.
