Moseley SL9003Q 602-12016 Revision G
To determine the rate at which errors occur, or how many errors occur in any period of
time, multiply the BER by the Data Rate and scale by the amount of time. For instance to
calculate the average number of errors in an hour period, BER (errors/bit)* Data Rate
(bits/sec) * 60 secs/min * 60 min/hour, for example:
1.46E-10 errs/bit * 2.048E+06 bps* 60 secs/min * 60 min/hour = 1.08 errors/hour
