Fuzzy evaluation in the selecting for excellence of telecommunication engineering design by Huifang WANG

“…In view of the faults in traditional communication engineering design assessment,such as general indicators,the lack of quantitative analysis etc,the comprehensive evaluation system was constructed,which combined with the hierarchical analysis and fuzzy evaluation.In the basis of studying the existing model of communication engineering design evaluation and the demand for communication engineering project design of the social development,the evaluation index system was established firstly by designing questionnaire and analyzing the investigation results.According to the importance of the indicators,it determined the index weight by the analytic hierarchy process.Then fuzzy evaluation matrix was obtained by membership degree calculation,the two stage fuzzy comprehensive evaluation was completed in the excellence selecting of telecommunication engineering.…”
