Abstract

Methods and systems for generating an estimate of a bit error rate of a signal are provided. Methods and systems include obtaining an eye mask for a receiver, receiving a signal with the receiver, generating an eye mask probability density function of the eye mask, generating an eye diagram probability density function based on the signal, calculating a product of the eye mask probability density function and the eye diagram probability density function, summing the product of the eye mask probability density function and the eye diagram probability density function, and estimating the bit error rate of the signal based on the summing of the product of the eye mask probability density function and the eye diagram probability density function.
