An estimation method of system reliability based on Bayesian statistical theory is presented in consideration of the uncertainty of component reliability estimates for distributed monitoring systems. The system reliability estimation variance and confidence intervals are obtained with higher order moments of component reliability estimates. A Bayesian estimation method is used to estimate the higher order moments of the component reliability and to determine the confidence intervals of the system reliability estimation. A practical case is used to illustrate the procedure. The results showed that the method proposed is practical and valuable for designing monitoring systems and their maintenance.
