избыточность
Существование средств в дополнение к средствам, которые могут быть достаточны функциональному блоку для выполнения требуемой операции, данным для представления информации.

избыточность (кодирования)
Характеристика кодирования информации, обеспечивающая повышение вероятности безошибочного считывания штрихового кода или передачи информации.
Примечание
В символе штрихового кода высота штрихов обеспечивает вертикальную избыточность, допуская существование множества возможных путей поперечного сканирования символа, из которых теоретически достаточно лишь одного для полного декодирования символа.

резервирование ИБП
Методы построения системы бесперебойного питания, направленные на обеспечение бесперебойного электроснабжения нагрузки даже при возникновении неисправности ИБП или какой-либо его функциональной части. ИБП может иметь резервированные внутренние блоки (модульный ИБП) или резервирование достигается благодаря использованию нескольких ИБП, включаемых параллельно или последовательно

redundancy
A method based on using one or more extra backup modules, which enable normal system performance even in case of system failures. For example, redundancy is achieved by feeding a consumer of 1KVA by means of two 1KVA rated UPS systems connected in parallel, hence single unit failure does not affect load performance.
