Aerospace Instrument-Making Annotation << Back THE METHOD FOR A POSTERIOR EVALUATION OF CHARACTERISTICS OF A COMPLEX SYSTEM BASED ON THE RESULTS OF SIMULATION AND TESTING OF PRODUCTS S.V. Slatov, V.N. Arseniev The problem of estimating the characteristics of a complex system based on the results of model studies and tests of a limited number of prototypes is considered. Obtaining a posteriori estimates of the characteristics of the system is carried out by joint processing of weighted model and experimental data. The proposed approach is invariant to the form of the distribution law of model estimates. An example of a posteriori estimation of reliability characteristics of a hypothetical system is given. Keywords: Complex system, characteristics, prototypes, tests, a posteriori estimates. DOI: 10.25791/aviakosmos.9.2023.1359 Pp. 12-17.
