Abstract
This paper presents an approach to a real-time optimization of safety parameters in wireless communication systems. When considering the GEC–model (Generalized Erasure Channel) and the black channel design of a communication channel, then the PFH (Probability of Failure per Hour) value can be estimated using the parameters ε – BER (bit-error-rate), φ – BLR (bit-loss-rate), v – number of safety related messages per second, n – message length and dmin – minimum distance of a linear code. The number of safety related messages per second v and the message length n, including the information block k and the checksum block r, can be varying between the permissible bounds. Accordingly, the variable parameters can be adjusted at run-time with additional assimilation of the used cyclic code. It allows the real-time prediction and optimization of the safety parameters. In this paper, the concept of the parameter estimation is discussed and based on it the optimization problem is defined.
