An Accurate Error Rate Detection Scheme by Pseudo Error Monitoring

An Accurate Error Rate Detection Scheme by Pseudo Error Monitoring Shunsuke ISHIZAKI, Hisato IWAI and Hideichi SASAOKA (Received April 18, 2008) Pseudo error monitoring is an error rate detection scheme of digital transmission path to assess the link quality. The detection performance of the scheme is influenced by interference signals. In this paper, we propose a new error rate detection scheme. In the scheme, accurate error rate is estimated by combining a number of estimation methods. As an example to show the effectiveness of the estimation scheme, a diversity combining scheme accommodating the proposed error detection scheme in frequency-selective fading is presented. pseudo error, link quality estimation, bit error rate, wireless communications
