Exponential Distribution<br />

The distribution gives:<br />

• failure density: f (t) = λe −λt<br />

• reliability function: R(t) = e −λt<br />

• constant failure and repair rates: λ(t) = λ and µ(t) = µ<br />

• MTTF = 1 λ<br />

• MTTR = 1 µ<br />

The probability of a system working correctly throughout a given<br />

period of time decreases exponentially with the length of this time<br />

period.
