  Abstract

In general communication system is composed of processor subsystems, I/O processor subsystems and data storage device subsystems those are classified as their functions. In order to improve the data reliability, all subsystems are redundant. Storage device keeps the operational information such as system related information and charging information, and such informations must be stored in non-volatile memory. Flash memory and battery backup memory are commonly used as the non-volatile storage devices. But such kind of memories are expensive per unit capacity and data can't be restored when lost while not being backed up.
In this paper we develop a redundant storage device to store a lot of data safely and reliably in communication system. The device consists of micro-controller, FPGA and hard disk. It provides many functions those are rebuilding, automatic remapping, host service and remote host service. Also it is designed to provide host service while rebuilding is being done in order not to interrupt the communication services.
The developed device can be used instead of expensive storage device like flash memory in various communication systems.
