Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for predicting bit errors in a communication channel, comprising generating a model representative of the communication channel, formulating enhanced noise at a first noise level that is higher than a second noise level, the second noise level corresponding to a level of noise that the communication channel experiences during a general operation of the communication channel, simulating an operation of the model by injecting the enhanced noise into the model, determining actual bit errors of the model when the model is simulated with the enhanced noise, and estimating a bit error rate (BER) when the model of the communication channel is operated with noise of the second level. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
