Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method, apparatus and system for determining reliability information for a network component (240) of a telecommunications network. The disclosed method comprises: obtaining (310) a plurality of samples of an operating parameter of the network component (240) acquired over a period of time; determining (320) a value of an acceleration factor based on the plurality of samples, the acceleration factor corresponding to an effect of the operating parameter over time on the network component (240); and determining (330) the reliability information based on the determined value of the acceleration factor.
