Simulating a communication system often involves analyzing its response to the noise inherent in real-world components, studying its behavior using graphical means, and determining whether the resulting performance meets standards of acceptability. The sections in this chapter are as follows.
| Performance Results via Simulation | Computing error statistics using the Monte Carlo technique |
| Performance Results via the Semianalytic Technique | Computing error statistics via the semianalytic technique |
| Theoretical Performance Results | Computing theoretical error statistics using published formulas |
| Error Rate Plots | Plotting error statistics and fitting a curve to empirical error statistics |
| Eye Diagrams | Plotting eye diagrams |
| Scatter Plots | Generating scatter plots |
| Selected Bibliography for Performance Evaluation | Works containing background information about performance evaluation |
Because error analysis is often a component of communication system simulation, other portions of this guide provide additional examples.
| Random Bit Error Patterns | Performance Results via Simulation | ![]() |
