  • Bit error rate performance estimation and control
    Publication number: 20060200710
    Abstract: There is provided a method and system for obtaining an enhanced estimate of bit error rate performance. A receiver module counts a predetermined number of bit errors and concurrently measures the time taken for the predetermined number of bit errors to occur. In this way an estimate of the bit error rate (BER) is obtained which has the same statistical weight regardless of the numerical value of the BER. The estimate of BER can subsequently be used to optimise the parameters of the system such that the true value of BER is at a minimum.
