ABSTRACT
Fault-tolerant system has become intricately linked with everyday life, being discovered in our society and it is used in industries, health, and the banking sector for service delivery. Traditional techniques of fault tolerance exploit redundancy to mask the faults that will improve the system availability but the cost of deploying these systems has relegated it to be used only in critical cases. Therefore; it is imperative to develop a model of fault tolerant system for a wireless network that can ensure availability and to reduce cost. The proposed model will use a combination of triple modular redundancy scheme and the fuzzy logic to solve the problem of excessive cost and to ensure that the system dependability in evaluating fault tolerance in systems can effectively reduce cost. In this study, an improved model of a fault-tolerant system for wireless network was developed. Hence; the combination methods use above should be applied in checking or removing the fault in the systems.
